Interview Alistair Dutton

Is mise Mgr. Jarek Kwiecień (Earraig Mac a’ Ghiblein, sgrìobhte ann an dòigh Ghàidhlig 😊). ‘S e Pòlannach a th’ annam agus tha mi air a bhith nam shagart o chionn 18 bliadhna. A-nis tha mi nam cheannard aig a’ cholaiste far am bi sinn a’ trèanadh shagartan ùra. Tha mi cuideachd nam sheaplain dhan a’ Chomainn againn. Tha e na fhìor urram dhòmh cothrom a bhith agam smuaintean beaga a thabhainn do chuid de na Crìostaidhean aig a bheil Gàidhlig. ‘S e beachdan air soisgeul an Dòmhnaich a bhios seo. Feuchaidh mi ri sin a dhèanamh tric gu leòr, ‘s dòcha a h-uile seachdainn. Chì sinn…
Agus ler toil, dèanaibh tròcair orm a thaobh na Gàidhlig agam…
‘S e Bìdeag an t-ainm a thug mi don t-sreath a tha seo. Dìreach mar a bhios sinn a’ gabhail bìdeag bìdh gu cunbhalach airson ar cumail a’ dol, mar an ceudna feumaidh sinn ar biathachadh air biadh a tha fada nas cudromaiche. ‘S e Facal Dhè a tha comasach air ar cumail a’ dol, an dà chuid a-nis agus gu sìorraidh.
 
Gum beannaicheadh Dia sibh.
 
Mgr. Earraig
