A life that spans nearly nine decades is remarkable by any standards, even in this modern age of longevity. But when that life embraces what might be called four lives, then it is truly extraordinary. Yet such was the life of Bishop John Evangelist Mc Bride.

Dr. Mc Bride died on Monday the 11th of February 1991 on the feast day of Our Lady of Lourdes. In this web site we will take a look at his life, from his birth place in Co. Leitrim, (Ireland) to his work abroad and especially his work in Africa.
