Welcoming Fr. Patrick Chibuko
Archbishop Henning has appointed Fr. Patrick Chibuko, Temporary Administrator of Holy Family Parish Concord and Saint Irene Parish in Carlisle effective 1 September 2026.
We are delighted to welcome Fr. Patrick C. Chibuko, our new Collaborative Administrator, to Holy Family/St. Bernard and St. Irene! Fr. Patrick is originally from Nigeria and was ordained a priest in 1983 for the Catholic Diocese of Enugu, Nigeria. Following extensive studies in Nigeria and Rome, his priestly ministry has taken him to Nigeria, Italy, the United Kingdom, Germany, and the United States.
Fr. Patrick joined the Archdiocese of Boston in 2023 and has since served in Westwood, Woburn, and the Wrentham-Plainville Collaborative. He shares that he is looking forward to meeting all of us and working together in his new assignment. If you see Fr. Patrick at Mass or around our Collaborative, please introduce yourself and give him a warm Collaborative welcome!
We also invite everyone to join us for our Collaborative Ministries Fair on September 12 & 13, after all weekend Masses. In addition to discovering the many ways you can get involved in our Collaborative, this will be a special opportunity to meet and greet Fr. Patrick and personally welcome him to our community.
Welcome, Fr. Patrick! We look forward to beginning this new chapter together.For those of you who missed Fr. Dave's farewell reception or was not here during the summer, please read A Farewell Letter from Fr. Dave.
