Read about the life and faith of Blessed John Sullivan. The ecumenical aspect of Father Sullivan’s life means that he is remembered and revered by both Catholic and Protestant traditions. The Church of Ireland Archbishop Michael Jackson, quoted by the Clongowes Wood website, declared that, ‘we rejoice in the fact that as well as living a life that honoured God and the Jesuit order, he (John) spent half of his life as a member of the Church of Ireland. In this sense the recognition of his holiness has a strong ecumenical feel to it.’
