Br. Richard Hendrick

Brother Richard Hendrick is a priest-friar of the Irish branch of the Capuchin Franciscan Order. For over 20 years he has worked to bring the insights of the Christian Contemplative tradition to greater public awareness. He has worked extensively in the training of teachers and youth workers in models of contemplative education particularly through the Sanctuary Centre in Dublin’s north inner city. For Brother Richard poetry is a wonderful tool for living a contemplative life in the heart of the world. He is the author of many poems including the 2020 viral meditation on the good to be found in the midst of the pandemic, “Lockdown.” His latest book “Stillpoints” was an Irish bestseller.

CANA Talk - "Joy" 

A Roadmap to Happiness means authentic happiness - it means "joy" in a fundamental sense. Joy is often brushed to the side as a fanciful idea, but it is real and it is attainable. No better man than Br. Richard to tell us what true joy is, and to show us how we can find it.
