News from Fr. John:
Hi Peadar,
Greetings from Bawnogue parish in Clondalkin. This is where I am based now. I have retired from South
Sudan as there are enough young African Spiritans to run the show there now but the Congregation is
struggling to find priests to maintain the parishes that they have in Dublin so I decided to offer my
services to the Congregation here.
It has been a great 10 years in Rumbek, South Sudan and I really appreciate all the help and support
that I have received from the Donagh and Truagh parishes over the years that I have been on mission in
Africa- more than 40 years now. Thank God we leave behind us a young, vibrant Catholic Church in Africa
that is continuing to help look after the spiritual, social and health needs of the population in Africa. It
has been a great journey together and would not have been possible without the tremendous faith and
support from our parishes in Ireland. Thank You and your readers for the the support you have given me
over the years. Only the Good Lord Himself can reward you for your prayers and generosity in our Faith
journey together.
Thank You . God Bless.
John
