Interesting Capuchin news...

This year we celebrate 400 years of Capuchin presence in Ireland and to mark this we will host a number of events during the year including travelling exhibition of panels depicting the story of the Capuchins in Ireland. We are also delighted to announce a free commemorative conference to mark the anniversary, find out more by following the link: Capuchin Conference

A couple of weeks ago Brother Kevin Crowley of the Capuchin Day Centre for Homeless People in Dublin, travelled to Rome and met Pope Francis. The two exchanged greetings and the Pope congratulated Brother Kevin on his tireless work for the poor. He's a continuing example to us all.
