Join us at the Capuchin Friary Church Street on the First Friday of the month (beginning Friday 05 June 2026) for 'An Evening with the Sacred Heart for Peace and Vocations'. We begin with tea / coffee at 6pm followed by a talk. The talk for June is from Br. Martin Bennett (Provincial Director of Vocations and Communications) on the 'Devotion to the Sacred Heart as an act of love'. Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament and prayers for peace follow the 7.30pm Mass. Spread the word. We plan to gather each First Friday in the Sacred Heart Hall of the Capuchin Friary Church Street D07HA22.

Notice: There will be no evening Mass (7 p.m) on Sunday (April 26). This is because there will be a concert at the church celebrating the 30th anniversary of the Dublin Gospel Choir. We apologize for the inconvenience.

Siochan siorai duit, a Phadraig. Go mbeidh tu I gcomhluadar na n-aingeal.

With great sadness we announce the death of our Capuchin confrere, Br. Padráig O'Cuill OFM Cap. Br Padráig joined the Capuchin Order in 1957 and was ordained to the Priesthood in 1967. During his years as a Capuchin Friar, Padráig ministered as an Irish language teacher, hospital chaplain and chaplain to Dublin Port and Docks. For many years he served as the Archivist for the Irish Capuchin Province.

Br. Padráig died peacefully in Beaumont Hospital this morning (04/02/2026) following a short illness. Padráig was a kind, helpful and cheerful man who often caused howls of laughter with his quick wit and razor sharp sense of humour. He will be very much missed in the Capuchin Friary Raheny and beyond.

Ar dheis Dé go raibh a anam dílis.

We have an upcoming coffee morning for men interested in our Capuchin way of life. Some answers to questions we are often asked:

1. The upper age limit for joining the Irish Capuchin Friars is 40 years of age

2. To follow a vocation as a brother or priest in the Catholic Church, a person must be baptised in the Catholic Church, they must be actively practicing their faith and they must be free to join a religious Order i.e. they must not be married or in any committed relationship.

3. We live a community based life. This means we share all we have and all we are with each other. We pray together, eat together and share the blessings and challenges of our Capuchin life together.

You can find out more about us on our website: www.capuchinfranciscans.ie/vocations
