As you go into the Church, on the right-hand side of the vestibule is a white marble tablet which lists the Chaplains and Parish Priests of St. Raphael’s. Have you ever wondered about these men? For example, what is known about the first six who are listed, Fathers Donovan, Clark, Doyle, Ainsworth, Morley and du Plerny? Parishioner David Kennedy gave an illustrated talk on them as part of our 2023 Lenten fundraising project in support of our Lenten appeal.
