Limerick Teenagers Tweet Pope In Bid To Keep Parish Priest

The Pope has been inundated with tweets from young people in Limerick, asking him not to move their local parish priest.

Father Chris O'Donnell, who has been described as 'inspirational', is due to move to Dublin later in the year to write a religion schoolbook.

It's led to an online petition with over 1,300 signatures, and a number of tweets to Pope Francis with the hashtag 'keep our hero'.
