The picture above captures the recent presentation, from the Borris-Moyasta Group, to Fr.Joe Tynan C.C. Moycarkey-Borris, on the occasion of his 50th birthday.
History was made recently in the parish of Moycarkey-Borris, when Fr. Joe Tynan, became the first priest to publicly celebrate his own 50th birthday with a Mass in the Church of St James, Two-Mile-Borris, together with close family & friends. Later in the evening Fr.Tynan attended at a repast and social night in Corcoran’s Lounge, where Mr Bart Howard, Master of Ceremonies for the occasion, gave a detailed resume of Fr. Joe’s life and his many major achievements, both here in Tipperary and abroad.
While extensively involved in the parish life of his community, and amongst his many other commitments, Fr Joe lends his organisational skills to the North Tipperary Vintage Club, Little Development Association and was heavily involved in fund raising last year for the Brazilian Missions, through his promotion of the Circle of Life CD.
Father Joe is wished every health, happiness and many more birthdays, wherever his priestly duties may direct him in his future career.
