MESSAGE FROM FR. JIM LENIHAN
As I begin my ministry as the new Moderator of Kilcummin Parish, taking over from Fr. Kieran O’Brien, I would like to express my sincere thanks to him for his dedicated and faithful service to the people of Kilcummin since 2019. We wish him every blessing and happiness as he takes up his new responsibilities in Rathmore Parish. I would also like to thank Fr. Vitalis Barasa for his two years of generous ministry to the parish and wish him every blessing as he begins his new ministry as Parish Priest of Ballymacelligott Parish. At the same time, we warmly welcome Fr. Pat O’Donnell and Fr. Seán Murphy to the team of priests serving Kilcummin as part of the Killarney Pastoral Area. Together with Fr. Joe Begley, Fr. Noel Spring, and Fr. Pádraig Kennelly, we are committed to serving the people of Kilcummin and, with God’s grace, continue building up His Kingdom among us.
CHANGES IN OUR PARISH
As we say farewell to Fr. Kieran and Fr. Vitalis we thank them sincerely for their dedicated service, kindness, and spiritual guidance during their time in our parish, we wish them every blessing, happiness and good health as they begin their new Ministries and we assure them of our prayers & gratitude. At the same time we extend a warm welcome to Fr. Pat O’Donnell and Fr. Sean Murphy who have joined the Pastoral Area Team. We look forward to their ministry among us, and pray that they will feel at home in Kilcummin.
