We hope that all residents, visitors and especially those new to the catholic parish of St. Cronan's Church will find something of interest and take a few minutes to explore our site.

We are striving to ensure that the site evolves into a useful and used resource containing information on all aspects of our parish life and community and we welcome your views.  Check out our News & Events page to find out what's happening in the  community of Brackenstown.

We encourage you to provide your own input and ideas so that we can be certain that we're meeting the needs of our community.

We love to welcome new parishioners into our Church, and hope that you would make yourself known to us if attending Masses at St. Cronan's Church.
