Welcome Fr. Flanagan
We extend a Cead Mile Failte to Fr. Eamonn Flanagan, CM., who has recently joined our community from St. Vincent’s Parish in Cork. Here he introduces himself.......

I have been appointed Curate in the Parish. Born in Co. Sligo, I come from the Vincentian Parish, Sundays Well in Cork, where I spent the last 3 years. Before that I ministered for 7 years in St. Mary’s Parish, Dunstable, England. Earlier I worked in secondary education, seminary formation, missions, retreats and spiritual guidance. I have, therefore, wide experience in youth work, the needs of lay people, and the concerns of the poor.

In terms of ministry, I have pastoral interests in all the people in parish life and particular conviction on the values of family life and the necessity of prayer and good guidance for people today.

To relax, I’m interested in literature, poetry, music, and sport, and time with friends and family, or (on longer breaks), walking in the mountains where I like to pray and praise God in the works of creation. I look forward to meeting you all.      

Fr. Eamonn Flanagan, CM.
