Fr. ROY McGREEVY

Many Cursillistas will be saddened by the news of the death of Fr. Roy McGreevy who died peacefully aged 62 in August.

Fr. Roy was diagnosed as having stomach cancer in May and was on many peoples prayer list, from which he received great strength and comfort. Fr. Roy made his Cursillo on Chester Cursillo #1 in 1988. He became an active member of the Cursillo movement in Chester by becoming a Spiritual Director and staffing on #2, #7 and #12.

He was a strong believer in lay leadership and encouraged his congregation at St. Stephens, Congleton to make their Cursillo.

When he retired through ill health in December 1993 he left behind a legacy of a strong lay team able to take on the running of the church and conduct services. Fr. Roy was loved by many and their lives where greatly enriched and nourished spiritually through knowing him. Please continue to pray for Margaret his wife, also a Cursillista, now and in the future.
