Help save Drumoghill Chapel

Hello friends and community members, near and far.

We need your help to save our local parish church in Drumoghill.

St Columba’s church is a small chapel located 10 minutes outside of Letterkenny in Drumoghill, Manorcunningham. This humble building has been the hub of Drumoghill’s bright, caring and connected local community for almost 200 years.

During that time, it has been a place where we have come together to mark the most important times in our lives. We have celebrated families uniting through marriage and the birth of new family members. We have made our first communions, confirmations, and watched our children do the same. We have also gathered here to say goodbye to our loved ones. Despite its unassuming appearance, our most important memories are tied to Drumoghill Chapel. If the walls of Drumoghill Chapel could talk, they would tell our community’s story.

Our chapel is the heart of our community, but unfortunately, its future is at risk. If you have been in the chapel in recent years, you will, no doubt, have noticed that time has taken its toll on the building. Without major restoration efforts, we will lose our beloved parish church. Over the years, our community members have shown their passion, creativity, and generosity by raising money for the church restoration fund. All of this work has got us to where we are today, ready to start the restoration project, but the work isn’t done yet.

We need your support to start the new chapter of Drumoghill Chapel. By building the restoration fund, we will be able to complete our renovation and ensure that our parish church can continue to be the heart of our community for generations to come.

Drumoghill is a small place, but our community members have spread across the world. If you have memories from our parish church, consider donating to or sharing our fundraiser to support a new era for Drumoghill.

All donations will go directly to the Drumoghill Parish Building Fund account
