Priest uses ‘50 Shades’ to whip up Lenten fervour

Fr Kevin McNamara, the parish priest of Rathmore, Gneeveguilla, Shrone and Knocknagree, straddling the Cork-Kerry border, has erected a large eye-catching sign outside his church with the words: “Whatever about the 50 shades — remember the 40 days!”
Fr Kevin said he hopes the sign will encourage parishioners to reflect on Lent as a joyful season which should be grasped as an opportunity to renew our lives.
