Fr Mervyn Duffy SM

Dip. Tchg.,
BSc. (hons) - Victoria University of Wellington,
STB - Mt St Mary's Seminary, Hawkes Bay,
STL - Pontifical Gregorian University, Rome,
STD - Pontifical Gregorian Univeristy, Rome.


I am a Marist priest working in Auckland as Dean of Studies of Good Shepherd College. I lecture in Systematic Theology. While studying for priesthood I completed a degree in Mathematics at Victoria University of Wellington. I taught Mathematics, Computing and Religious Education at secondary level, principally at St Patrick’s College, Silverstream, and Pompallier College in Whangarei.

For three years I was employed by the Qualifications Authority as the National Moderator for Religious Education. Subsequently, I spent four years in Rome studying for the license and then doctorate in systematic theology.

I have become involved in Marist Studies through working with Marist Seminarians. With Fr Kevin Conroy SM I organised a conference Catholic Beginnings in Western Oceania (27-29 July 2007) which was a curtain-raiser to the Suva Colloquium.

2) for his fare on board ships 1700
3) for his housing in the mission house and chapel
(2 priests and a brother 3000) 1000
4) for food and keep 1000
Total, at least, for the first year 5500

the annual keep for each priest will rise to 1000
Purchase of a ship to sail around the islands and visit stations 22000
Yearly expenses for sailing – from 15-18,000 fr (the ship
will always be in use) – on average 16500
