News from MSC Ireland: the closing of Myross Wood, Leap.
Many Australian MSC have visited Leap, Western Cork (on the tip of Ireland, next stop, America). Some visited when Myross Wood was the Novitiate – in the past and again, in 2017, as the international novitiate with Jim Miller MSC as novice director. Some visited when it became a retreat centre.
After 74 years of ministry, it has now closed and plans are in progress for the future of the building and the estate– but somewhat delayed by covid-19 in Ireland.
Michael Curran, former superior general, and Daniel O’Brien resided at Myross Wood. Michael is appointed to reside with Terry O’Brien MSC in the parish house in Kilmacabea (Leap-Glandore). Dan is appointed to the Western Road community.
