A MESSSAGE FROM BISHOP FRANK DOUGAN
AUG 18th 2024
​
​
Dear Sisters and Brothers,
I want to take the opportunity to write to you following a fairly difficult few months. The death of Fr Martin Chambers, the change of Parish Priest, and the subsequent illness of Fr Willie Boyd have affected you in different ways and must have been a bit unsettling to say the least. I would like to personally thank you for the way you have helped and supported each other in these months and for your patience. From the time I arrived here I have been struck by the faith, resilience and goodwill within the Diocese and that has been evident in your parishes. It is a clear sign that we are all in this together.
I am delighted that Fr Willie’s health is improving and that he will return to active ministry when the time is right. We have to make sure that he is patient with himself! I am also grateful for the ministry of the other priests who have stepped in, especially Fr Pat Keegans. And I am also so happy to have been able to welcome Fr Laurent Bahati to the Diocese and to your parishes. He has already been overwhelmed by the welcome he has received and is looking forward to his time with you.
Thank you again for your care for each other and for your priests.
+Frank Dougan​
