| Fr Kevin Connolly (Clogher) with Mr Donal McMahon (Saggart) |
One of the few diocesan ordinations so far this year took place on Sunday 30th June in the cathedral of St Macartan, Monaghan. Kevin Connolly (39) was ordained by Bishop Lawrence Duffy (see a report here). For information on Kevin's life before he entered Maynooth in 2012, see here. Donal McMahon taught him for part of his studies in first year, Kevin's first and Donal's last year in the college.
Kevin worked as a horticularist for many years. So we may say that his tender care for seedlings and plants will be extended from now on to the equally delicate sphere of helping human lives to flourish.
