Mr. Monaghan Gives 70 Year Projection of AMU’s Impact on Church and Society

Fr. John A. Gallagher, AMU Conferences and Development, was born in Northern Ireland, and was ordained a priest in 1992 after graduating from St. Patrick's National Seminary in Maynooth, Ireland. Since then he has worked in parish ministry in the Derry Diocese in Northern Ireland, and also in the Diocese of Palm Beach. As an international evangelizer, Fr.
