Now that the Reverend Jean Carney has completed her initial curacy, the Bishop of Cork, Cloyne and Ross, the Right Reverend Dr Paul Colton, has announced that he is delighted to appoint Jean as Priest-in-Charge of Moviddy Union of Parishes in the Diocese. This is a half-time post which is twinned with the assistant chaplaincy at Cork University Hospital and the Bon Secours Hospital, Cork.

Expressing her delight at her appointment, Jean said:

Having served this past year as Bishop’s Curate, I am delighted that the Bishop will now give me the opportunity and privilege of serving the parish as their Priest-in-Charge. It is an honour to continue ministering in such a warm and caring community, and I look forward to many more joyful years together in faith and fellowship.
