Book signing by priest
Londonderry priest Father Michael Collins will be signing copies of his book ‘Life, Death and the Bits In Between’ at Hunter’s Cafe in Limavady on Friday from 2pm to 4pm.
Now retired, Fr Collins spent 50 years working in the Diocese of Derry, 18 of which were spent at Long Tower Church, where he was in charge for many years during the Troubles.
He retired in 2011 and last year published a book of archive pictures ‘Travellers in Time and Eternity.’ He has also written a book containing his regular contributions to ‘Thought for the Day’ for Radio Ulster.
However this most recent book marks a new departure: Partly autobiographical, the book tells tales from his life as boarder in St Columb’s College right up to the present day.
