Annual gathering of MSC ordained in the last decade.

Last week, under the guidance of Frank Dineen, there was a gathering for MSC’s who have been ordained within the past 11 years. They gathered at St Mary’s Towers, Douglas Park.

Two speakers facilitated sessions on ‘transition’ as many are dealing with this issue. The facilitators were Br Darren Burge fms and Eileen Glass of L’Arche.

It was a week of open and honest sharing and acknowledges the importance of ongoing formation.

Chris McPhee joined us for the last evening.
