All profits from last month’s concert by the Kildare singer are going towards the fund for the installation of a new heating system in the Liam McCormick-designed church.
The church, which was completed in 1967, was voted Ireland’s Building of the 20th Century in 1999.
Writing in the parish bulletin, parish priest Francis Bradley thanked everyone who helped make the concert “such a great success”.
Fr Bradley, who sang at the concert himself, thanked all those who attended and gave support to the fundraising.
“The Parish acknowledges receipt of €6,500 as the profit from the night,” he said.
