As we begin our Jubilee year I extend a warm welcome to Bishop Kevin Doran, a native of our Parish who is chief celebrant at the opening Mass. Today we celebrate our Patroness - Our Lady of Victories. I hope this will be a wonderful year of celebrating the past 60 years as we have much to be grateful for.

We acknowledge our humanity and mistakes and look for this year to be a time of renewal and rededication to Our Lord and Saviour during this Year of Mercy as decreed by Pope Francis.

Many thanks to the LPI for launching the newsletter earlier than planned. We appreciate their professionalism /support of the last few months. Hoping you enjoy reading the results over the coming year!

We have also received a message of encouragement from Archbishop Diarmuid Martin, marking the beginning of our Jubilee Celebration

1st October 2015

Dear Fr. Gleeson,

I write to congratulate the people and priests of the parish of Our Lady of Victories as you gather to celebrate this double Jubilee of your Church and Parish. A Jubilee is an opportunity to recall the past, and look to the future. In recalling the history of this Church and Parish, and the priests who served in the parish both diocesan and Salvatorian, we are remembering the faith of all those who lived and worshipped there, with each person gathering on October 11thserving as a witness to the faith of past generations.

The 60 years since the building of your Church has seen many changes in your parish, and in the Church in . Change is not always welcome, times of Church services or changes to the staffing of Parishes often upset people, but it is necessary. Yet all of these things are in a way external, that is not to say unimportant, but they are not our primary focus. What serves as a great comfort to me as Archbishop and to my priests, is the faith and goodness of the people of God, both in the parish of Our Lady of Victories and elsewhere. Your commitment to your Church and parish is heartening, and I take this opportunity to thank all who serve the Church in their respective ministries. May this Jubilee year be a source of renewal and joy for the people of this parish.

Yours sincerely, Diarmuid Martin Archbishop of Dublin Ann Doyle receives Papal Honour The parish are delighted to present the Bene Merenti Medal to Ann Doyle for her many years of service to the Church and the Community of Sallynoggin/Glenageary. The Benemerenti Medal is the highest honour awarded by the Pope to lay persons in recognition of their long and exceptional service to the Church.

The medal has been blessed by Pope Francis and is inscribed with the word ‘Benemerenti’ which is derived from the latin ‘to a well deserved person’. Congratulations Ann and thank you for the many years of Service!

Our Lady of Victories was opened and blessed by his Grace, Most Rev John Charles McQuaid, DD, Archbishop of Dublin and Primate of Ireland on 7 th August, 1955. The first Mass was celebrated, on the same day, by Very Rev Michael O’Halloran, DD, parish priest of St Joseph’s Church, Glasthule, in which parish Sallynoggin was situated at the time.

It was not until 1966 that Sallynoggin was constituted a separate parish. Prior to the building of the new church, Sallynoggin was served by a temporary wooden church of St Kevin, which was built in 1927, and was sited across the road from Chadwicks. It was a Chapel of Ease in Dun Laoghaire parish. At the time Sallynoggin was divided between Dun Laoghaire and Glasthule parishes. This arrangement was changed when plans for the development of the whole of the Upper Glenageary area were drawn up by the housing authorities. Pat Downes. One of the last First In May 1950, at a public meeting in Glasthule it was Communicants in St. Kevin’s. decided that the Dun Laoghaire portion of Sallynoggin would be transferred to Glasthule and that Glasthule Parish was to erect the new church. The site of the permanent church was changed to its present position where it would be in the centre of the developed area. Work was underway for the new church in 1952. Archbishop McQuaid blessed the site to be occupied by the altar and also laid and blessed the Foundation Stone in January 1953.

The church itself, which is 180 feet long and 155 in width can seat approx. 1800. The bell tower is 120 feet and is surmounted by a 9 foot cross. It was expected at the time that the church would cater for a population of about 6,000 people living in 1,280 dwellings of Sallynoggin and Upper Glenageary. Archbishop McQuaid blesses the Foundation Stone on Monday the 19th January 1953

The bell was not of the old type. It was described as a loud speaker sound, being produced by records, kept in the sacristy, and relayed from speakers in the tower. Only two other such bells were in use at the time, one in Cork and one in Athlone. The high altar was finished in Italian marble and on the front of the altar in the red vein of the mar- ble is a representation of a chalice. The stat- ues and the Stations of the Cross were made in Tyrol. The contractors for the building of the church were T and J Macken Ltd, Dun Laoghaire. Mr WJ Macken presented a silver trowel, made of Georgian silver to the Archbishop for use during the ceremony. The architect was Stanislaus Nevin. Marble works were made by Earley Studios of Ecclesiastical Arts, Dublin.

The cost of the building, excluding altar, furniture etc, as £108,000. Many events were organised and run by local volunteers to help with the fund -raising efforts, e.g. collections, carnival, sales of work, football and golf tour- naments, a concert, card drives and dances.
