The Congregation of the Mission was founded with a dual purpose:
This second purpose has been developed to include helping the clergy and laity in their formation and leading them to a fuller participation in the evangelising of the poor
It is with this purpose in mind that the Vincentian fathers took on the role of caretakers in All Hallows and St. Patrick’s, Drumcondra.
The Vincentian Community is aware of a recent newspaper article that makes reference to two Vincentian priests who were teachers in St Paul’s College and St Vincent’s Castleknock College in the past.
The Vincentian Community wishes to offer our support to anyone who was harmed during their time in our schools and we encourage them to contact us. We are fully committed to helping anyone who has suffered abuse, in any way we can.
Anyone with concerns on child safeguarding issues should contact An Garda Síochána, Tusla, the Colleges or the Provincial Office of the Vincentian Community.
