🛎️ Reminder of the upcoming Irish Theological Quarterly lecture:

Managing the grassland in this way provides a more sustainable alternative to regular grass cutting. It also creates valuable habitats that support biodiversity, allowing a wide range of plants, insects, and wildlife to thrive throughout the summer.

The grassland located to the rear of St Patrick's College is allowed to grow naturally into species-rich meadows during the summer months. We work in partnership with a local farmer who cuts the meadows at the end of the growing season, with the harvested grass baled into haylage.

​Rev Prof Neil Xavier O'Donoghue, Director of Liturgical Programmes, SPPU, spoke at a gathering of the clergy in the Diocese of Meath this week. More details below:

Professor Michael A. Conway, SPPU, will speak and lead a discussion on “Let’s have an honest conversation about Synodality,” Adult Faith Formation, Killaloe Diocese, next Saturday, 26 September 2026, Parish Centre Ennis Cathedral, Ennis.

In case you missed it, we were delighted to be part of the Maynooth850 RTÉ Nationwide programme on Monday evening. Rev Dr Michael Shortall, President of St Patrick's College spoke with Richard Downes about the history of the college and the part it now plays in the life of modern day Maynooth.
