Presentation Sisters 250th Anniversary Celebrations at Killavullen Parish Church and Nano Nagle Birthplace

Ballygriffin’s Nano Nagle Birthplace marked a significant milestone on Sunday, 26 April 2026, celebrating the 250th anniversary of the Presentation Sisters. The day honoured the enduring life and legacy of Nano Nagle, whose vision continues to inspire communities around the world.

A commemorative Mass was held at the Church of St. Nicholas, Killavullen, at 11:30am. The celebration was led by Bishop William Crean, alongside Fr Gerard Condon PP and Fr Hegarty. The ceremony was also live-streamed, allowing people across six continents to join in this special occasion.

The event was made possible through the dedication and teamwork of a committed volunteer community, whose efforts in the lead-up and on the day itself created a deeply meaningful and spiritual experience for all involved.

Sr Lois, Sr Alba, and Sr Una extended heartfelt gratitude to everyone who contributed to making the celebration such a memorable and uplifting occasion at Nano Nagle Birthplace.
