Very sad to hear of the passing of Fr Crilly.
Years ago I sat in his kitchen for hours discussing the conflict, his faith, and his ministry.
He is one of those people that advocated for justice during the conflict and provided comfort to many families. May he rest in peace.
It is with deep regret we inform you of the death of our former Parish Priest Fr. Oliver Crilly.
Fr. Oliver was a faithful and dedicated Parish Priest to us from 2007 - 2015. During that time he touched many people's lives and will be greatly missed by everyone in our Parish.
Congratulations to our colleague, Dr Sarah Roddy on the publication of new book, Money and Irish Catholicism, published by @CambridgeUP. The book traces how ordinary people funded the Irish Catholic church between the end of the Famine and independence.
Have just received hard copies of my book from @CambridgeUP. It's about the ordinary people who funded the Irish Catholic church between the end of the Famine and independence. It takes in social, economic, religious, emotions history and much else besides...
Our latest book available for review will surely be of interest to many of our members!

Very sad to read of Nell McCafferty’s passing. If you haven’t read her class book, “Peggy Deery: A Derry Family at War”, then I urge you to do so. #IrishStudies

Incredibly proud of @AndrewHarrison_! Completing a PhD while working full time is difficult. Add to that a global pandemic & a toddler? Epic. Congrats Andrew!!! #Twitterstorians
Twenty years after my first graduation in Cardiff I finally completed my academic qualifications with a @KingsCollegeLon PhD graduation ceremony at the Royal Festival Hall. It’s been an eventful journey & I have many people to thank for their love, help and support along the way.
My 2yo has 2 kids named Margaux in her class. Whenever she talks about them, she refers to one as “Margaux” and the other as “Other Margaux”. A toddler mixup.
Except tonight I found out that her nursery carers actually call 1 of them “Other Margaux” to differentiate them. 💀
