WHEN I WAS YOUNG I THOUGHT THAT IT WAS DONORS
This unusual church is situated beside the Tolka River at the junction of Glasnevin Hill and Botanic Avenue which is near the entrance to the Botanic Gardens.
When I was young we, as a family, visited this church every so often for Sunday mass and until I visited a few year ago I thought that that it was the Lady Of Donors Church so I was a bit surprised when I discovered the it is the Lady Of Dolours Church [apparently dolours means poetic grief or sorrow]. I should explain that my father constantly complained that they were always seeking donations.
