Le p\u00e8re Michael O’CARROLL (1852 – 1881)<\/p>\n

Le 22 f\u00e9vrier 1881, \u00e0 Tanta, en Egypte, retour \u00e0 Dieu du p\u00e8re Michael O’Carroll, \u00e0 l’\u00e2ge de 29 ans.<\/p>\n

Michael O’Carrol naquit \u00e0 l’Hospital, dans le dioc\u00e8se de Cashel (Irlande), en 1852. Apr\u00e8s ses \u00e9tudes faites \u00e0 l’Hospital et \u00e0 Dublin, il entrait aux Missions Africaines en 1877, faisait le serment l’ann\u00e9e suivante et \u00e9tait ordonn\u00e9 pr\u00eatre en 1880. En septembre 1880, il prenait le chemin de l’Egypte et \u00e9tait nomm\u00e9 \u00e0 Tanta, fond\u00e9 deux ans auparavant. Au d\u00e9but d’une station, le Seigneur demande souvent le sacrifice. Le p\u00e8re O’Carroll, en mourant 5 mois apr\u00e8s son arriv\u00e9e, devenait le protecteur sp\u00e9cial de la mission de Tanta. Il mourut d’une pneumonie, compliqu\u00e9e de fi\u00e8vre typho\u00efde.<\/p>\n

Humble et franc, le p\u00e8re O’Carroll \u00e9tait d’une nature bonne et simple.<\/p>\n

Father Michael O’CARROLL (1852 – 1881)<\/p>\n

Michael O’Carroll was born in the town of Hospital, Co Limerick, in the archdiocese of Cashel, in 1852. He died in Tantah, near Cairo, Egypt, from pneumonia complicated by typhoid fever, on 22 February 1881.<\/p>\n

We know very little about Michael’s background. He studied in Hospital (Co Limerick) and in Dublin before deciding to join the Society of African Missions in 1877. He probably had some ecclesiastical training in Dublin before coming to the Society because his course of studies was short. Michael was among the first group of students recruited by the All-Hallows trained James O’Haire, a missionary in South Africa, who in 1876 returned to Ireland to seek out members for the S.M.A. After a brief period in the Society’s apostolic school in Mayfield, Cork – he was then 25 years old – Michael went to the Society’s major seminary at Cours Gambetta, Lyon, France, where he studied theology. He took his permanent oath of membership on 14 June 1878 and was ordained a priest in the seminary chapel at Lyon on 26 May 1880. The ordaining prelate, according to Society records, was a Bishop Germain.<\/p>\n

After ordination Michael was assigned to the Egyptian mission, going there directly from Lyon in September l880. The S.M.A.’s first contacts with Egypt date from 1877. At the time the Superior General, Augustin Planque, was urgently seeking a suitable mission field for the growing number of members whose health had been irreparably damaged in West Africa, or who for other reasons were no longer capable of enduring the rigors of tropical Africa. Egypt had a good climate to recommend it. Michael’s appointment there came as no surprise as he had a delicate constitution.<\/p>\n

Auguste Duret was founder and first superior of the Egyptian mission, which in 1884 was erected as a vicariate apostolic. One of the first institutions established by Mgr. Duret, was an elementary school in Choubra, to the east of Cairo, named after St. George. It was to this institution that Michael was assigned. However his missionary career was to be cut tragically short when he died within five months of his arrival.<\/p>\n

He is buried in Choubra, Egypt.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
