BUNCLODY MASS INTENTIONS         

  New Priest

On the 20th October,2007 We will be welcoming Fr. Gabriel Barros, into our Parish of Bunclody /Kilmyshall

My name is Gabriel Barros. I was born in San Luis, Argentina, on 29th April 1975, and I am the youngest of four brothers. I did my elementary school in the city of San Luis, and on the 5th February, 1989, I went to the Minor Seminary of the Incarnate Word, in San Rafael about 250kms south of San Luis, where I did my High School, the Novitiate (1993) and the Major Seminary (1994 - 1999). On 31st may 1999 I was professed as a religious of the Institute of the Incarnate Word.

At the beginning of the year 2000, I was sent to study in Rome where I got the Degree in Biblical Studies. During this period I was ordained deacon in Italy (24th May 2001) and on 9th August 2001, I was ordained a Priest in La Plata (Argentina). After that I continued my studies in Scripture in Jerusalem and then in Rome until February 2005. During that time I worked in our House of Formation in Italy and then since August 2004 as assistant to the General Secretary in Rome. During all those years I was also teaching Scripture in our House of Formation. At the end of July 2007 I was assigned to Kilmyshall, Co. Wexford, Ireland.
