About Us

 

Welcome to the Most Holy Redeemer "Clonard", Clonard Monastery, situated just off the Falls Road in West Belfast, Northern Ireland. The church is administered by the Redemptorist Fathers, with the current superior being Fr Michael Murtagh, CSsR.


Clonard is not a parish church, which is the reason why it does not have baptisms, marriages and funerals, something people find hard to understand. The Church and Monastery are situated in the parish of St. Peter's, right on the boundary of St.. Paul's parish.

The Church is dedicated to the Most Holy Redeemer.
