Fr Royston Price CSsR, our Vocations Director reports...

"We have just had the joy of welcoming several young men to our monastery in Perth for a 'Come and See' weekend.

Over the course of the weekend the men had input on the history of the Redemptorists and our spirituality, as well as the life of St Alphonsus, and the formation process for the London Province. There were also times of prayer and adoration, as well as recreation.

If you'd be interested in a similar experience in the future send us a DM or tap the link in our Bio to get in touch.

Pray for these men as they continue to discern God's call for their lives!"

Sr Helen Mary Freer OSsR... Solemn Profession...

"On Saturday 1st August 2026 we had the tremendous joy of celebrating Sr. Helen Mary Freer's Solemn Profession.

The Profession Mass was celebrated by Bishop Paul Dempsey, Auxiliary Bishop of the Archdiocese of Dublin.

Our community had the pleasure of being joined by our brother Redemptorists. Fr. Dan Bargary CSsR, delivered a beautiful homily and Fr. Ryan Holovlasky CSsR made sure the ceremony was both dignified and smooth.

Sr. Helen was also joined by faithful friends who have supported her with great love and generosity along her journey.

Some members of the local community who worship with us regularly, our own chaplain Fr. Pat O'Donoghue and some of his most able choir and music group brought the joy of themselves and their talents to enhance the celebration.

We are deeply grateful to them all and to God above all for the gift of our newly Solemnly Professed Sister." A report from the OSsR Nuns website.
