Fr Martin Graham
Fr Martin Graham serves as Administrator of St Peter’s Cathedral in the heart of Belfast — a landmark of faith in the city since the 19th century. With a deep commitment to vocations and the formation of young Catholics, Fr Martin has spent his ministry ensuring that no one walks alone in their faith journey. His pastoral presence at St Peter’s reflects a Church that is not a distant institution, but a living, breathing community ready to walk beside you. The Legion of Mary shares this very charism of accompaniment — legionaries are called to go out, to meet people at their doorstep, and to be a quiet, consistent presence of care. Fr Martin’s message speaks to the heart of what the Legion does every week across the diocese.
Loneliness is one of the defining struggles of our time. It is not just about being physically alone — it is the feeling that nobody truly understands where you are, that the community you once belonged to has moved on without you, or that the Church has nothing to say to your life as it is now. If you have ever felt like that, this session is a gentle but powerful reminder: you are not alone, and you never were.
Fr Martin Graham explores how the Catholic Church is designed not as an exclusive club for the already-perfect, but as a family that accompanies its members through every season of life — the joyful and the painful, the certain and the doubtful. From the Sacraments to the simple presence of a parish community, he will show how the Church meets us at every stage, with patience, with love, and without conditions.
Whether you have been away for a year or for decades, this talk will remind you that there is always a place set for you at the table.
The Church is not a museum for saints — it is a hospital for sinners. And the doors are always open.
