The two neighbouring provinces of Great Britain and our confreres across the Irish Sea met recently at the Insitute’s house at Ardee, Co. Louth. The eight priests of the GB Province joined the seven Canons serving in Ireland for their Provincial Days.
It was a grace‑filled time marked by prayer, conferences, fraternity, and visits, made all the more special by the presence of Monsignor Wach, Prior General of the Institute. We were especially delighted to welcome Monsignor to the house in Ardee, where he expressed deep admiration for the beauty of the chapel and was pleased to see the excellent performance of the newly installed heating system. We were likewise honoured by the visits of His Grace Archbishop Martin and Seán Cardinal Brady, whose presence added further joy and encouragement to the occasion.
