NcAlleenan trained for the priesthood in St. Patrick's College, Thurles in Tipperary County, Ireland, and was ordained in 1985,[2] for the Diocese of Westminster.
McAleenan served for 30 years in several English parishes. He was named Canon prior to his appointment as Auxiliary Bishop of Westminster in November 2015.[3] As an auxiliary bishop, he has pastoral oversight for the deaneries of Hertfordshire.
