Stillorgan, Ireland

Beech Park Community... Daughters of the Cross in our ‘Wisdom Years’...

Welcoming, prayerful, supportive, affirming, we share in the hopes, sufferings, successes and joys of each Sister here and worldwide, including our Associates and Sunday congregation.

As far as we are able, we support the apostolic ministries of our Sisters, friends in Missions (especially in Brazil) and various Charities... notably St. Stephen’s Green Trust. (www.ssgt.ie)

We try and keep informed about what is going on in the world, taking special interest and action on peace and justice, and inspired by Laudato Si, environmental issues. We are committed to collaboration with AMRI (Association of Missionaries and Religious in Ireland).

Our frailer Sisters enjoy watching nature from our conservatory, especially the variety of birds that come to our bird feeders and the foxes that occasionally pass through our garden during the day.

Meal times are an important part of our community life now, bringing us together and providing the opportunity to relax, enjoy each other’s company and share news of interest.
