A wonderful reflection from Rev Cennis on his call to ordination and the journey that has led him to our parish.

In June 2026 two new Deacons were ordained to serve in Dublin and Glendalough. The Revd Cennis Chikezie is serving as Curate Assistant in the Parish of Castleknock and Mulhuddart with Clonsilla with the Rector the Revd Colin McConaghie. The Revd Esther Simpson is serving as Curate Assistant in Rathmichael Parish Church with the Revd Sean Hanily.

Now on our website, in the early days of their curacies, they reflect on their call to ordination and their hopes for their new ministry.

Both Esther and Cennis speak of their life-long faith and they both speak of the importance of others in helping them to hear God's call to ordination.

Thank you to the Mothers’ Union for hosting an evening focusing on Habitat for Humanity Ireland
We were delighted to be joined by Liz from Habitat ReStore Ireland Glasnevin and to hear reflections from members of the 2026 Cambodia team.
Apologies for the photo quality, the Rector may have forgotten to take them so had to screenshot from the Facebook live recording.

Please encourage anyone who has been confirmed in the last few years to complete this survey.

Are you one of the hundreds of people who have been Confirmed in Dublin and Glendalough since 2017? If you are, CIYD (the Church of Ireland Youth Department) wants to hear from you.

CIYD is launching a major Confirmation Survey for EVERYONE who was Confirmed throughout the Church of Ireland since 2017. They want to hear as many experiences as possible: what was the preparation like, how did you feel about the service, what difference did Confirmation make to your faith? The survey is completely anonymous, there will be no way to trace individual answers, so you can be as honest as you like.

CIYD wants to get as big a picture of Confirmation as possible so as to improve it for the next generation. The research will seek to identify the ideal age to get Confirmed; the most impactful preparation; and what other things influence the faith of teenagers in the Church of Ireland. The more they know, the more Confirmation can be even better for those people being Confirmed over the next few years.

The survey will only take five minutes to complete and if you are a parent or guardian of a young person who has been confirmed since 2017 please pass the survey on to them. You can access it via the QR code below or from our website - https://dublin.anglican.org/news/2026/09/07/ciyd-launches-major-confirmation-survey
