It is with deep sadness that we announce the death of Fr Sean Carroll. Fr Sean was found dead in the presbytery on Sunday at Sacred Heart, Ruislip. Prayers were offered for him and his family in Ireland have been informed.

I ask your prayers for the repose of his soul and the Lord’s merciful welcome into eternal life. Fr Sean was a priest of great integrity for whom justice was always important. May the Lord welcome home this good and faithful servant.

The Collect of Mass for the Feast of the Epiphany offers us hope:

O God, who on this day revealed your Only Begotten Son

to the nations by the guidance of a star.

Grant in your mercy, that we, who know you already by faith,

may be brought to behold the beauty of your sublime glory.

Through Christ our Lord. Amen.

May Fr Sean rest in peace and rise in glory. 

Condolences and prayers are offered to his family, friends, fellow priests, and the parishioners of Sacred Heart, Ruislip, as well as others who mourn his death. 

May the Risen Christ give them comfort and consolation.
