First Profession of Barry CP Gareth CP and Frank CP

The community and staff have been preparing for the great day of first profession and finally it arrived. Yesterday the little chapel was full of family and friends of the newly professed. All gathered to witness their public celebration of commitment to the Passionist Congregation. The three men had just finished their eight day silent retreat in preparation for their profession.
It was a great day for all concerned. I believe it is a particular blessing on our decision to stay in Tobar Mhuire. As we say goodbye to Gareth, Frank and Barry we are hopeful that in March next year we will have a new class of novices seeking to join us in the refounding of our order and the healing and rebuilding of our Church.
