Seamus Mc Guinness Chairperson Ballinasloe Parish Pastoral Council and Fr Charles.

Ballinasloe Parish Pastoral Council have welcomed Rev Charles Nyameh as the new Curate in Ballinasloe, Creagh and Kilclooney.

Fr Charles from the Diocese of Jalingo, Nigeria, has been in Ireland for some time now and was previously appointed to Loughrea as a curate in St Brendan’s Cathedral. As well as his role in the Ballinasloe Pastoral Area he will be the Diocesan Co-ordinator for the Pastoral Care of Immigrants. He enjoys playing soccer and comes with a reputation of being quick on the ball!

​Seamus Mc Guinness, the Chairperson of the Ballinasloe Parish Pastoral Council stated: “We are delighted to welcome you to our town and parish and wish you every blessing and support from all in the town and surrounding areas.”
​
Fr Charles was one of six Clerical Appointments in the diocese recently and Bishop Michael Duignan added: “I wish to thank all those who have been so generous in taking up these new appointments, especially those who do so in addition to other responsibilities. I pray that with God’s help those taking on these new roles will provide us with wise and dedicated leadership. My hope is that together we will continue to forge a way forward that best responds to the pastoral needs of our Diocese at this time.”
