Saint Titus Brandsma

Blessed Titus Brandsma was canonised a Saint by Pope Francis in Rome on Sunday May 15th 2022.  Saint Titus, a Dutch Carmelite, who was murdered in Dachau Concentration Camp for his courageous struggle for Christian values and human rights was one of ten people canonised    by Pope Francis.  St Titus actually spent some time here in Whitefriar Street and Kinsale learning English in the the 1930's so there is a very special, real connection to St Titus within Whitefriar Street.  

A Mass of Thanksgiving to mark the Canonisation of Titus Brandsma, O. Carm (Carmelite & Martyr) was celebrated in Whitefriar Street Church on Sunday May 22nd 2022 at 4pm .  We would like to thank all who joined with us in this wonderful celebration. The Church was filled with people celebrating both the life of St Titus and his canonisation. It was wonderful to welcome so many people to the Church. We are also very aware that a great many people joined in the celebration via the webcam. Thank you for being part of this special ocassion.
