Cardijn Lecture 2024: Patrick Keegan, first lay auditor to address Vatican II – Patricia Jones

This year, ACI is pleased to announce that the Cardijn Lecture for 2024 will be delivered by Dr Patricia Jones.

Her subject will be: “Patrick Keegan, first lay auditor to address Vatican II.”

Looking back over the 60 years since Keegan delivered his address to the Council on 13 October 2024, Pat will examine what has been lost and what has been gained in recent decades with respect to the lay apostolate.

As her biography illustrates, Pat will draw on a vast wealth of experience as an academic researcher, including recently as lead author of the ground-breaking British report on implications of the abuse crisis, and in a variety of other leadership roles in the UK church and internationally.

We hope you will join us!
