Irish Pastoral Centre of Boston

Formed in 1987, the Irish Pastoral Centre is a ‘parish without boundaries.’ It helps Irish immigrants make their often challenging transition to life in the USA a positive one, by offering citizenship counseling, spiritual and pastoral care, year round activities for mothers and toddlers, families and senior citizens. The Irish Pastoral Centre had a long-time presence in Brighton and Quincy, and in 2011 moved its operation to Dorchester’s St. Brendan’s Parish. The Centre celebrated its 25th anniversary in 2012.
