The Catholic Church and its Stories

St. Peter's Church stands on one of the main streets in Drogheda, which is a quiet town situated to the north of Dublin. When we got there we were ready to go explore. We had a great evening in the area, and we kept going into this church that had a proud looking neo-Gothic facade. Inside we found a little surprise. The head of the martyr Oliver Plunkett lies there in a glass case, covered in gleaming brass, beside the altar! Plunkett was hanged and then beheaded, probably during the persecution of the Catholics in the 17th century. In 1975 he was canonized. Your vision is a little tricky, why say anything, so if you are "strong emotions", avoid that corner of the church, heh, heh.
