Introducing the parish of Dunhill & Fenor

Welcome to our parish. The parish of Dunhill and Fenor is situated in the southeast of Ireland in the diocese of Waterford and Lismore, about 15 km southwest of Waterford city. Of course, if you are a parishioner, you already know where we are. However, you could be an American in Paris who just happened upon this web site and, naturally, you might wonder where our parish is situated.

There are two churches in the parish: the church of the Immaculate Conception in Fenor, shown above, and the church of the Sacred Heart in Dunhill, shown below. Each time you enter this Home page you will see different photos. Any photos with snow in them (you know, that cold, white stuff) were taken during the ice age of 2010/2011 either by Fr. Paul Murphy or by the parish winter photography team.

Of course, our parish is not simply a collection of buildings or a geographical area - it is a community of Christian people that strives to love God and neighbour. The purpose of this web site is to assist them in their spiritual journey and to help them to join in the life of the parish by providing information about parish life, services, and resources. We are led in our journey by the parish administrator, Fr. Paul F. Murphy.

We hope that you will enjoy your visit and come back again soon and often. Newcomers to the parish are especially welcome and should find plenty here to interest and inform them, while those who are living or travelling abroad may keep themselves up to date. Most of all, we hope that our faithful parishioners of long standing will be pleasantly surprised by what they find in this, their very own web site.
