Father Patrick J. Kelly - our parish priest From 2004 to July 2007

Father 'PJ', as he prefers to be known, was previously at Braunton parish in Devon and before that engaged in mission work in Africa

We wished Father P.J a fond farewell on July 9th 2007, with grateful thanks for his ministry here and with peace and many blessings for the future.

CONGRATULATIONS to Father P.J. whose 40th ordination anniversary was on the 18th of June 2007.
A Mass of thanksgiving was celebrated on Sunday 1st July followed by a superb buffet lunch which was well attended, including members of P.J's family. We said we would be getting some details from 'PJ' for this page when convenient for him!
Well we never did but the tribute we heard on the 1st of July, about his life as a missionary priest for 30 years in Africa, was really interesting and most inspiring.

New Year Message from Father 'PJ' As we enter the New Year, I pray that it will be a year of many blessings for all parishioners, their families and friends. I would like to take the opportunity to thank all who made the liturgy at Christmas and throughout the past year, a true expression of faith and for all who have supported our parish and given so generously in so many ways to build with us the 'body of Christ'. May we continue in that spirit during the New Year 2007 - a year promising to be of great change for us all.'
