"Det er ikke tit, en præst stjæler opmærksomheden ved et bryllup. Men det var, hvad der skete ved Chris og Leah O'Kanes bryllup i lørdags i Oldcastle Church i Meathe, Irland"

skriver Kristeligt Dagblad i deres omtale som kan læses <her>.

I avisen Irish Independent <her> er der en omtale af et telefon interview med Father Ray Kelly, på den Irske radiostation RTÉ 2fm:

"I worked in Dublin for awhile and had the voice trained there and I stuck at it. I was part of the priest show in Dublin may years ago in Dublin." 

fortæller Father Ray Kelly bl.a. - og studieværten Ryan Tubridy får også præsten til at synge i telefonen. Hele det åbenhjertige radio interviewet der kommer vidt omkring, kan du høre her:

"Singing priest (Father Ray Kelly) again at Linda & Donals wedding 22nd March 2014"

I wasn't at all surprised to see Father Ray Kelly hitting popularity the way he has done. I am surprised that it is just as I'm editing Linda & Donals wedding. I shot this on 22nd March 2014. I travelled up from Limerick that morning.
