Last Monday night St. Thomas Aquinas parish council approved my request to go to Honduras to work in the diocese of Santa Rosa de Copán - not alone, but as a mission from St. Thomas.
God is good.
About Me
- John (Juancito) Donaghy
- Santa Rosa de Copán, Honduras
- I am a permanent deacon in the diocese of Santa Rosa de Copán, ordained July 15, 2016. I help in the rural parish of Dulce Nombre de María. From June 2007 to that date I was a lay volunteer with the Catholic diocese of Santa Rosa de Copán, Honduras. Between 2009 and 2014 I served as associate director of Caritas of the diocese. Soy un diácono permanente en the diócesis de Santa Rosa de Copán, Honduras, ordenado el 15 de julio de 2016. The name "Hermano Juancito" - Brother little John or Brother Jack - was given to me by the children in the Suchitoto, El Salvador, countryside in 1992, a "title" which I treasure - worth more than any doctorate.
