Cahersiveen Parish incorporates The Daniel O’Connell Memorial Church of the Holy Cross, Cahersiveen; St Joseph’s Church, Aghatubrid; and the Church of the Immaculate Conception, Foilmore. Our community welcomes you to our website and hopefully, at some stage, to our parish itself – Fr. Larry
The Daniel O’Connell Memorial Church has recently undergone major renovations. We have installed new electrical, lighting and heating systems together with new floor covering. The cost is estimated to be €2 million. We would be most grateful if you would support our church restoration fund, please.

The Daniel O’Connell Memorial Church of the Holy Cross is reputed to be the the only parish church in Ireland to be called after a layman. This church was built, and named with special papal permission, after the great statesman Daniel O’Connell, a lay person – neither a saint, deity, cleric or member of a religious order – a man who worked tirelessly and peacefully for Catholic emancipation by way of mass movement of people, in Ireland, in the 19th century.
O’Connell is buried in Glasnevin Cemetery (Dublin), and the Dublin Cemeteries Trust has produced an informative factsheet about his life, political career, achievements and values, including his commitment to human rights, religious freedom and equality.

Our Parish Church looks resplendent this Christmas. Thanks to everybody who has been involved, in any way, with the restoration project, and well done to those who prepare the crib and sacred spaces every year. “The Christmas of the Lord is the Christmas of Peace.” – Pope Leo XIV.

On August 15, the Feast of the Assumption of Our Blessed Lady into Heaven, we gathered, at Cuas Crom, for the annual Blessing of the Sea. We give thanks to God for the beauty of the sea and the life it brings. We pray for the safety of all those who go to sea - for work, travel and recreation.
