Silver Jubilee celebrated
Dromantine was the location for the Silver Jubilee Celebration of Fr Fergus Tuohy SMA which was held on 7 July 2006.
Fr Fergus was ordained to the priesthood on 13 June 1981 in Cork. He was first assigned to the Docese of Jos (Nigeria) and when the Vicariate of Bauchi was created in 1996, Fergus moved there. His missionary career has been divided between educatain and pastoral activities.
About 50 SMA members joined in the celebration of the Jubilee Mass. The homily was preached by Fr Aodh¡n McCrystal SMA. The Provincial Superior, Fr Fachtna O’Driscoll SMA, paid tribute to Fergus and his work at a function that followed the Mass and made a suitable presentation to him.
