Rosemont, PA- Celebrate the season of all things Irish with parish priest and noted author, Father John McNamee at Rosemont College on Wednesday, March 24, 2010, in the foyer of Main Building.

Perhaps best known for his efforts on behalf of the poor, Father McNamee is a pastor emeritus of Saint Malachy Church (Philadelphia, PA) and the author of several books of prose and poetry which champion the cause of the poor. His best known book, Diary of a City Priest, was made into a movie and appeared at numerous film festivals with distribution rights on public television.
Father McNamee’s contributions to the poor have touched many people and projects in Philadelphia and elsewhere. He is the founder and board member of the Southwest Community Enrichment Center. Other organizations that he is involved with include the Dorothy Day Catholic Worker Movement, the Catholic Worker House, the Ludlow Youth Community Center, and the Catholic Peace Fellowship. Additionally, he continues to support the efforts of Saint Malachy.
McNamee’s presentation is free and open to the public.
