Religious Formation Ministry Programme

The Religious Formation Ministry Programme (Loreto House) is a one-year renewal programme offered by the Association of Leaders of Missionaries and Religious of Ireland (AMRI). Since 1982 the RFM Programme has become renowned for its excellence.

In the RFM Programme female and male religious, together with diocesan clergy, find a space to learn from each other in an atmosphere that treasures diversity and encourages personal renewal. Former course participants minister in every continent throughout the world.

Loreto House has a new home!

After more than 20 years in the beautiful surrounds of the Willow Park campus in Blackrock, the Religious Formation Ministry Programme has relocated to Saint Raphaela’s campus in Stillorgan.

We look forward to the journey ahead as we embrace change in a very real way.
