Fr Noel Conolly
Columban Missionary Priest Senior Lecturer and Head of Mission and Culture, BBI-TAITE
Noel passed away peacefully on June 06, 2020. Noel loved the world and loved people. He believed and worked tirelessly for the success of the Plenary Council. His membership on the facilitation team cannot be overestimated. He made peoples’ hearts burn within and his spirit lives in us all. He believed in the bounty of the blessings received from investing in the truth and above all, he loved God, the trace of whose finger in the arena of human affairs he spent a lifetime discerning. He is with us, yet deeply missed.Bishops Commission
