Happy Birthday, Fr. Mulvey!

After the foundation of the Paroisse Européenne in Luxembourg over 50 years ago, Fr Tony Mulvey, a Redemptorist from the Dublin Province, was appointed priest to the English-speaking community here, where he served for 13 years. Today, Fr Mulvey celebrates his 97th birthday; he is a remarkable man — not only was he a much loved priest here in Luxembourg, he has over the years kept friendships he made when he was here, and maintains an active interest in our community. Those who have known Fr Tony will wish to join me in wishing him a very happy and blessed day, and ad multos annos (many more years).
