Description

Attached five-bay two-storey convent with dormer attic, dated 1850, with single-bay single-storey gabled projecting glazed porch to ground floor, two-bay two-storey projecting linking block to left (forming two-bay (two-bay deep) two-storey return to north-west), two-bay two-storey linking block to right, and single-bay two-storey central return to north. Renovated. Hipped slate roofs (gabled to dormer attic windows) with clay ridge tiles, rendered chimney stacks, limestone ashlar gabled bellcote to apex to return (having pointed-arch aperture with cast-iron bell, and moulded coping having cross finial to apex), profiled timber bargeboards to dormer attic windows, rooflights, and cast-iron rainwater goods on dentilated rendered eaves. Pitched (gabled) glazed roof to porch with decorative ridge tiles having cross finial to apex, decorative timber bargeboards, and cast-iron rainwater goods on timber eaves. Painted roughcast walls with painted rendered, ruled and lined walls to side (west) and to rear (north) elevations having cut-limestone quoins to corners to return. Square-headed window openings (in bipartite arrangement to ground floor and to dormer attic to rear (north) elevation) with cut-limestone flush sills, hood mouldings over to ground floor, one-over-one (ground floor), six-over-six (first floor), and two-over-two (dormer attic) timber sash windows having some replacement models throughout. Pointed-arch window openings to ground floor linking block to right and to rear (north) elevation with cut-limestone surrounds having chamfered reveals, and one-over-one timber sash windows. Square-headed openings to porch with glazed timber panelled door having overlight, two-over-two timber sash windows on rendered sill, and fixed-pane overlight to gable. Round-headed door opening to convent with cut-limestone surround having hood moulding over, and timber panelled double doors having fanlight. Interior with timber panelled shutters to window openings. Set back from road in own grounds with painted rendered boundary wall incorporating square-headed pedestrian gateway with rendered block-and-start surround having cornice, tongue-and-groove timber panelled door, stepped parapet having cornice, and cut-limestone date stone pedestal supporting cross finial.

A substantial convent forming an integral component of a self-contained ecclesiastical complex in the centre of Mooncoin. Some pointed-arch openings linking the convent stylistically with the adjacent Catholic church (12328004/KK-42-28-04) the introduction of further varieties of window openings produces an idiosyncratic appearance enhancing the architectural design distinction of the composition. Additional fine details displaying high quality craftsmanship further enliven the external expression of the convent. Having been carefully maintained the retention of substantial quantities of the early fabric both to the exterior and to the interior maintains the position of the site as an important element of the architectural heritage of the locality.

 

Presentation Convent, James's Street , Kilkenny, was the fifth daughter house of the South Presentation Convent in Cork. In the first three decades of its existence, the Kilkenny Community was itself to become parent to seven other foundations, each drawing heavily on the finances and personnel of the Mother house. These were:

1811

Carlow

1815

Galway

1817

Thurles

1818

Wexford

1825

Callan

1829

Castlecomer

1830

Mooncoin

Presentation Convent, Mooncoin, founded from Kilkenny in 1829.

This photograph of the Presentation Convent, Castlecomer was taken in 1978. The convent was founded 150 years earlier in 1828.

In 1898 Sisters from Kilkenny founded a Presentation Convent in Kilmacow in South Kilkenny.

In 1913 another community of Presentation sisters was established in Durrow, Co.Laois. The sisters'convent and school was housed from 1929-1992 in Castledurrow, the original home of the Flower family dating from 1716.

In 1960 four sisters from Kilkenny went to the Philippines, to Himamaylan on the Island of Negros in the diocese of Bacolod. They went to teach the children there. The sisters who went were the late Sr. Baptist Kearns, Sr. Rita Keyes, Sr. Carmel Claxton, who taught in our school for many years and still lives in the convent next door and Sr. Annunciata Hayes who teaches Maths to the girls in 5th and 6th classes.

In addition to the founders the following sisters from Kilkenny have been to the Philippine Mission:

Sr. Paula Farrelly, Sr. Imelda Buckley, Sr. Rosarii Treacy, Sr. Marie Looby, Sr. Pius Murphy and Sr. Marie Bray.

The Presentation Sisters continue to live in Parnell Street, Kilkenny today in their new convent consisting of three adjoining houses built in 1990.

  • Our Heritage

The religious community that would become the Sisters of the Presentation of the Blessed Virgin Mary was founded in Cork, Ireland, by Honora “Nano” Nagle on Christmas Eve, 1775. In a 1769 letter to a friend, Nano Nagle wrote, “If I could be of any service in saving souls in any part of the globe, I would willingly do all in my power.” Nano’s service in the winding lanes quickly earned her the title “The Lady of the Lantern” as she visited the sick, comforted the sorrowing and educated children in the hedgerows. The light of her legacy calls us to go where need calls most loudly and to challenge ourselves to serve one pace beyond.

While Nano’s example inspired several other founders of religious orders in Ireland, her sisters also established additional religious foundations in several countries around the world. In 1874 Mother Vincent Hennessy left the Presentation convent in Mooncoin, Ireland, with three young women, to teach the immigrant children of Iowa, establishing the Dubuque Presentation community. Mother Vincent inspired others to live out the Presentation motto, Caritas (love for all). Despite challenging beginnings, the Dubuque Presentation community flourished.

Today, Dubuque Presentation Sisters are involved in educational and pastoral ministries and service to others. Sisters minister in urban and rural areas in the United States and in O’Connor Province of Tarija, Bolivia. Worldwide, over 2000 Presentation Sisters and numerous associates work in 23 countries and network globally through the International Presentation Association.

Interactive Timeline

presentation convent mooncoin

Nano Nagle, a daughter of Ireland who lived under the oppressive Penal Laws of England, established a religious community in Cork, Ireland. This community later became known as the Sisters of the Presentation of the Blessed Virgin Mary.

1784

Nano Nagle died at South Presentation Convent in Cork, Ireland.

1874

In response to an invitation from Bishop Hennessy of Dubuque, Iowa, Mother Vincent Hennessy, accompanied by three young women, left Mooncoin, Ireland, to establish a Presentation congregation in Dubuque. Arriving early with no convent available, the sisters settled in Key West, Iowa.

1875

The convent parlors in Key West became the classrooms of the sisters’ first school. 20 pupils answered roll on the first day of class. The following September the enrollment swelled to 80.

1876

Within a year the congregation had grown from four to seven sisters. On September 12, three sisters were assigned to their first mission at St. Malachi parish in Dubuque, later known as St. Anthony parish and school. Since 1876, Presentation sisters have served in 55 locations in the Archdiocese of Dubuque.

1879

The sisters built a boarding school in Dubuque known as St. Vincent Academy where 12 sisters were assigned. Later this academy became part of St. Columbkille parish.

1880

Soon after Mother Vincent and the sisters moved into St. Vincent Academy, she contracted pneumonia due to the incomplete construction of the building and later died. Mother Vincent’s death was a devastating blow to the young and fragile community.

1887

Despite the difficult loss of their foundress, the young community continued to grow through the grace of God. As the community flourished, sisters were missioned to Danbury, Iowa. Since 1887, sisters served in 22 parishes and schools in what today is known as the diocese of Sioux City.

1903

The first Presentation mission outside the state of Iowa was in Nebraska. The school where the sisters taught was located in Madison, Nebraska.

1909

The sisters moved from St. Vincent Academy to a motherhouse which they built at 1229 Mt. Loretta Avenue. Sixty years later this motherhouse became the Archdiocesan Pastoral Center of Dubuque.

1919

The first Presentation missions in the state of Colorado were in the cities of Stratton and Akron. Sisters were also missioned to Timber Lake in the diocese of Rapid City, South Dakota, where they served in the school for 59 years.

1930

During the depression of the 1930s, the sisters did not open any new schools. Some schools were temporarily closed. In many of the schools that remained open, the parishes were unable to pay any salaries. During those lean years, the music teachers were often paid with eggs, milk, meat and garden produce for giving private music lessons. Their labors sustained the sisters and left a powerful legacy of service for the community.

1963

The Sisters of the Presentation of Oregon, Illinois, joined the Sisters of the Presentation of Dubuque to form one congregation.

1964

The new parish and school named St. Germaine, located in Oak Lawn, Illinois, was the first mission of the community to serve in the Archdiocese of Chicago.

1965

With the promulgation of the Documents of Vatican II, renewal in religious life was visible in the expansion of ministries, changes in lifestyle and modifications of the religious garb.

1969

The sisters moved to a new motherhouse at 2360 Carter Road. This home, known as Mount Loretto, is the center for the administrative offices, the retired and infirmed sisters and the formation programs.

1970

With the call of Pope Paul VI asking religious congregations to send 10 percent of their members to serve in foreign missions, the Presentation sisters responded whole-heartedly by missioning sisters to serve those made poor in southern Bolivia. Sisters continue to serve there today.

1979

Because of the educational discrimination experienced by many in the African-American community, Presentation sisters began ministering in schools in the Archdiocese of Chicago that served this population. Today, this ministry not only continues but has expanded.

1980

Dedicated to the value of faith formation, the sisters utilized their skills and reached out to young adults. They began their work as college campus ministers in 1980 and are still present in this ministry today.

1981

With a strong desire to serve the needs of the poor wherever they may be, the sisters were drawn to serve in the Hispanic and migrant communities. The first Presentation mission in the United States was at Our Lady of Guadalupe parish and school in the Archdiocese of Chicago.

1988

Presentation sisters from around the world united to create the International Presentation Association which works for world-wide justice and supports a non-governmental organization at the United Nations.

1990

Sisters served in Guatemala for 10 years. They were involved in education, preparing catechists and church lay leaders, and helping organize those who were involved in local community improvements.

1991

Retreat ministry began in Buffalo, Minnesota, at Christ the King Retreat Center. Today, this ministry continues in various locations.

1992

Through a process of discernment, the community set its focus and direction into the next decade by committing their energy and resources toward empowering women and children.

1994

The community offered spiritual comfort by reaching out to those imprisoned. Prison ministry began in Marianna, Florida. Today, this ministry is located in Rochester, Minnesota.

1996

Over the next years, as needs arose, individual sisters came forth to serve in varied works and locations. They brought hope and joy to many places, including the Lakota people on the Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota, Tanzanians in Africa, service in food pantries in Chicago and Dubuque and in numerous roles of peace and justice.

1998

Nurturing a mutual and supportive relationship with Christian laity, the Presentation sisters began the associate process. Together, the sisters and laity foster the charism of Nano Nagle.

2000

Addressing the unmet need for transitional housing for women and children in Dubuque, Presentation sisters partnered with other religious congregations in the area to establish Maria House.

2002

In a total community vote, the sisters took their first corporate stance to embrace the Earth Charter. By this action, the sisters committed themselves to help create a sustainable global society founded on the principles of respect for nature, universal human rights, economic justice and a culture of peace.

2004

Thirty-two years after ministry began in Bolivia, young women desiring to enter the Presentation community were captivated by the spirit of Nano Nagle. A formation program was established in order to welcome Bolivian women.

2005

New Orleans, Louisiana, is the site of a collaborative ministry project of the North American Presentation Sisters. These sisters, from different Presentation communities, are ministering to the poor and most needy.

2006

Unemployment and wages too low to afford enough food, are among the main reasons that people seek help from shelters and soup kitchens. Recognizing these critical needs of the homeless in Dubuque, Presentation sisters, in collaboration with other women religious, corporate sponsors and private citizens, opened Teresa Shelter, an emergency shelter for women and their children.

2007

The sisters adopted the following International Presentation Association Directions for Mission, ”Conscious of our identity as Presentation women, we listen deeply to the cry of Earth heard most loudly in the cry of those made poor, and we are moved to attend with urgency to the woundedness of our global community.” At this time, the sisters completed an audit of their carbon footprint and are striving to reduce it by 25 percent over next five years.

2008

To assist in preserving our heritage, Sister Joan Lickteig accepted the invitation to write an informal history, Tending the Light, of the Dubuque Foundation of the Sisters of the Presentation. This book expresses in broad strokes contributions made by the congregation to keep Nano’s mission and flame alive.

2009

Presentation Quest, an immersion and service program, was created to experience and address the root causes of poverty and to educate about earth sustainability. These opportunities for sisters, associates and volunteers engage all in a deeper understanding of relationships to one another, to Earth and to God.

2010

A wisdom circle to explore creative aging was established. This process assists sisters in finding healthy ways to live out their wisdom years, drawing energy from past experiences and discovering unused gifts for mission.

2011

Women & Spirit: Catholic Sisters in America, a project of the Leadership Conference of Women Religious (LCWR) tells the story of the contributions of women religious in America since the early 1700s. Hosted in Dubuque, this exhibit, developed through the collaborative efforts of the twelve local congregations, also highlights the roots of the congregations of Sisters from the Upper Mississippi Valley.

2012

During Chapter, a meeting held every five years, a new directional statement was established, clarifying the congregation’s vision for the future and commitment to engaging their passion and strength in continued work for justice, peace and compassion. “Ignited by the fire of God’s love and impelled by the legacy of Nano Nagle, we, the Sisters of the Presentation of Dubuque, participate in the evolving consciousness of the cosmos by reverencing relationships, celebrating unity, engaging contemplation and fostering partnerships to transform ourselves and our world.”

2013

A new ministry in Hampton, Iowa, was established to address the needs and realities of Hispanic immigrants. La Luz Hispana, “The Hispanic Light,” offers a hospitable space where Hispanics can come together to share and build their strengths, where social isolation is not a barrier, and where hope and a sense of possibility are fostered.

2014

A dream unfolds in Bolivia when Presentation Sisters serving there purchase a new house in the city of Tarija. The home is a place where young university women can come to live, study and share community life, learning about the Presentation spirit and culture.

2015

In celebration of jubilee, Presentation Sisters, with the help of generous partners, were able to purchase nearly 150 water filters for the Guarani people of Bolivia. The water filtration systems help provide safer drinking water, using no chemicals or electricity. These systems last 10 years and filter water at a higher standard than United States tap or bottled water.

2016

Presentation Sister Paula Schwendinger investigated the needs of immigrants in rural areas of Iowa including Cascade, Dyersville, Farley and Petersburg. Through her observation of the needs, Sister Paula initiated Hispanic Outreach Ministry of Evangelization (HOME). She seeks out individuals of the Hispanic community in their homes and offers them religious and Bible studies, translation and networks Hispanics with community services and resources. Sister Paula has found that HOME is where the heart is.

2017

During Chapter, a meeting held every five years, a new directional statement was established, clarifying the congregation’s vision for the future and commitment to engaging their passion and strength in continued work for justice, peace and compassion. The leadership team called those gathered to look into the future and consider where Dubuque Presentation Sisters are called to live radical hospitality.

Sister Carmen Hernandez states, “My hope is that we will move our direction and commitments into action and this, without a doubt, will mean we will need to take risks, make mistakes and let go of fears and of what has become familiar to us. Isn’t that what our foundress, Nano Nagle did? We continue to seek the most life-giving way forward as we risk radical hospitality, a hospitality emanating from the deepest part of our being in kinship with Earth and all people. With radical and root coming from the same word, we are called to look to Nano, and the characteristics of her risking as she planted the roots of her challenging ministry in Ireland 150 years ago. We will only be richer and deeper by extending ourselves to a world out there which cries out daily for our help. Whatever we decide to do, let’s do it. And let’s do it together.”

2018

Presentation Sisters around the world celebrated the 300th anniversary of the birth of Nano Nagle. With a lantern in hand, Nano walked the winding lanes of Cork, lighting the hovels and attics, incarnating God’s love in dark places. Known as the “Lady of the Lantern,” Nano inspired others by her singleness of purpose and passion of heart for those made poor and for changing the structures of society that made and kept people poor. Today, united by the legacy of this great woman, Sisters of the Presentation, associates, benefactors, partners, family and friends move as one for mission – Nano’s mission of serving those made poor and working for justice.

Since 1874, the Dubuque Sisters of the Presentation have played a significant role in continuing Nano’s work of love. Today they find their ministries of serving those most in need in nine states, the District of Columbia and Bolivia. With a desire to joyfully go where need calls most loudly, Presentation Sisters boldly grasp the lantern, tend its light and pass it on to ensure that the light of Nano’s hospitality, compassion, love and hope continues to shine among all, transforming the world in the process.

2019

The Presentation Sisters respond when the Leadership Conference of Women Religious (LCWR) received an urgent request for economic help and for volunteers to give hands-on ministry to the immigrants in the hospitality centers at El Paso, Texas border.

“Poverty is to be without options. The migrants are here because they have no other option. They are here because they have no other choice.” Reuben Garcia, founder of Annunciation House, speaks directly about the plight of the migrants arriving in massive numbers at the southern border.  “You must understand that this is not just a problem ‘down there.’ This is a massive human problem that is befalling our family – my family. We need to do something about what is happening to our brothers and sisters!”

At a Glance

  • Confronting injustice and working for peace
  • Prayer, service, and hospitality

In 1874, Mother Vincent Hennessy ventured out from the Presentation convent in Mooncoin, Ireland, with three young women, to teach the immigrant children in Dubuque, IA. Although little is known about Mother Vincent, she inspired others to live out the Presentation motto, Caritas (charity). Though beginnings were difficult, faith was strong and the Dubuque Presentation community flourished. In 1988, Presentation sisters from around the world united to form the International Presentation Association. They truly became a global organization in the spirit of their foundress, whose vision had always had a missionary dimension. In a letter to a friend in 1769, Nano wrote: If I could be of any service in saving souls in any part of the globe, I would willingly do all in my power. The legacy of the Lady of the Lantern has become a compelling call to follow the flame of God's love and justice.

Eldon and Marge Herrig Fund for the Sisters of the Presentation

We, the Sisters of the Presentation and our associates, dedicate our lives to God through evangelization, prayer, service and hospitality. Our way of life is based on the Gospel of Jesus Christ. We are called to incarnate the hospitality of God, to confront injustice and to work for peace.

Our Sisters are working across the globe to continue the work of our founder Nano Nagle.

Aberdeen, south dakota.

The Presentation Sisters came to Dakota Territory in 1880, answering a call to teach children in the area. In 1886 three sisters responded to an invitation to open Sacred Heart School in Aberdeen, South Dakota, and the congregation was soon staffing schools around the Diocese of Sioux Falls. In 1901 they began a healthcare ministry in response to the diphtheria epidemic. Presentation Sisters from the Aberdeen congregation continue in the name if Nano Nagle to serve those in need, especially through education, healthcare, welcoming the stranger, justice and advocacy.

Dubuque, Iowa

In 1874 Mother Vincent Hennessy left the Presentation convent in Mooncoin, Ireland, with three young women, to teach the immigrant children of Iowa, establishing the Dubuque Presentation community. Mother Vincent inspired others to live out the Presentation motto, Caritas (love for all). Despite challenging beginnings, the Dubuque Presentation community flourished. Today, Dubuque Presentation Sisters are involved in educational and pastoral ministries and service to others. Sisters minister in urban and rural areas in the United States and in O’Connor Province of Tarija, Bolivia.

New Windsor, New York

In September, 1874, 12 Presentation Sisters from Ireland, led by Mother Joseph Hickey, responded to an invitation to teach the children of poor Irish immigrants at Saint Michael’s parish in New York City. St. Michael’s soon opened an orphanage on Staten Island, also staffed by Presentation Sisters. In 1884, this became the home of the newly etablished Sisters of the Presentation of Staten Island. In 1886, Mother Magdalen Keating set out from Staten Island with a small group of Sisters to begin a new foundation in Fitchburg, Massachusetts. The Sisters eventually opened schools and other ministries in other areas of Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut and New Hampshire. In 1921, Presentation Sisters from St. Michael’s purchased property near the city of Newburgh, New York.  Later this site, Mount Saint Joseph, became the motherhouse of the Sisters of the Presentation of Newburgh. In July, 1997 the Fitchburg and Newburgh Presentation congregations became one.

San Francisco, California

Archbishop Joseph S. Alemany requested that the Sisters come to San Francisco in 1854 to open schools for the ever-increasing numbers of children arriving with the settler families.  By the time of the 1906 earthquake, they had flourishing schools in the downtown and North Beach areas of San Francisco and in Berkeley. After the earthquake, with  the work of 52  years in San Francisco laying in ruins, the Sisters immediately set about to meet the challenge of direct service to the victims of the disaster. In the years following, the Sisters extended their educational ministry to serve in a chain of parochial schools which stretched from Seattle, Washington, to Pecos, New Mexico. Presentation Sisters served in a variety of ministries including parishes in catechetical and outreach programs, in education at all levels, in literacy programs for immigrants and the undereducated, in community organizing and justice work, in hospitals, in ret reat and spirituality work, prison ministry and foreign missions.

Staten Island, New York

In September, 1874, 12 Presentation Sisters from Ireland, led by Mother Joseph Hickey, responded to an invitation to teach the children of poor Irish immigrants at Saint Michael’s parish in New York City. Because many of the children’s parents had died, St. Michael’s soon opened an orphanage on Staten Island, also staffed by Presentation Sisters. In 1884, this became the home of the newly established Sisters of the Presentation of Staten Island. In 2014 the congregation in Staten Island signed a covenant with New Windsor community. After a final Chapter in 2018, the congregation is now governed in cooperation with the New Windsor congregation.

Why do Russian churches have onion-shaped domes?

presentation convent mooncoin

Early Christian basilicas and ancient Roman temples often had one huge dome in the shape of a hemisphere. Russian churches, however, could be crowned with a various number of domes that came in different shapes.

If a church has three domes, they symbolize the Holy Trinity; five domes symbolize Christ and the Four Evangelists; while 13 domes are usually dedicated to Christ and the Apostles. There could even be 25 domes, as, for example, in the first stone Orthodox church built in Kievan Rus in the late 10th century. In addition to Christ and the Apostles, the other domes symbolized the Twelve Prophets. That church has not survived.

But the domes of that church did not at all look like onions. For a long time, Russian church architecture made widespread use of so-called helmet domes, whose shape resembled the helmets of Russian bogatyrs. Domes like that can be found on the oldest surviving churches.

However, onion domes became one of the symbols of Russia and the main distinguishing feature of Orthodox church architecture. The shape symbolizes the flame of a candle. "It is the crown of a church, like a fiery tongue crowned with a cross and tapering towards the cross...," wrote religious philosopher Yevgeny Trubetskoy in his treatise, Three Essays on the Russian Icon .

The 'onion' is the final part of the dome, sitting on a cylindrical base (called tholobate, or the drum), and the diameter of the onion dome is wider than the drum.

Historians have different theories as to when onion domes first appeared and, most importantly, what served as an inspiration for them. These domes can be found on numerous miniatures and icons starting from the late 13th century. Although the churches depicted on those miniatures have not survived.

The Presentation at the Temple. An icon from the village of Krivoye, Novgorod school, first half of the 14th century

So where did this shape come from? Some scholars believe that it was inspired by images of the Edicule (the chapel above the Holy Sepulcher), which is believed to have had its onion dome already in the 11th century.

Other historians believe that onion domes may have been borrowed from the Islamic architecture of mosques, which in the 15th century often had elongated domes.

The Gur-e Amir mausoleum in Samarkand, early 15th century

So why did this shape become so widely used? There are different theories trying to explain it. According to one, the bulbous form is more practical, as it prevents snow and water from accumulating on the roof. According to another theory, the onion shape was easier to execute in wood than the helmet one, and when church construction shifted from wood to stone architecture, that form of the dome was also adopted for stone churches. Yet another theory suggests that medieval architects sought to achieve elongated, taller forms in church architecture, which was in line with the Gothic style prevalent in Europe at the time.

Most of the onion-domed churches that have survived to this day were built in the 16th century and later. One of the most famous of them is St. Basil's Cathedral on Red Square, built during Ivan the Terrible's reign.

St. Basil's Cathedral, mid-16th century

St. Basil's Cathedral, mid-16th century

A factor that may have contributed to the widespread use of onion domes was the appearance in the 16th-17th centuries of tent-like churches. The tented roof - a tall, multifaceted pyramid - was an alternative to the drum dome. Scientists have concluded that medieval architects must have thought it not enough to simply crown the hipped-roof structure with a cross, and started adding onion domes to it. That design became widespread both in wooden and stone churches and can still be seen in the Russian North, as well as in Moscow, Vladimir and Suzdal. In addition, in many churches with more familiar architecture, bell towers are crowned with tented roofs.

Like the number of domes, their color also has a symbolic meaning. So, familiar-looking golden domes symbolize heavenly glory and are used to crown cathedrals or the main churches at monasteries and convents. These cathedrals are often dedicated to Christ or the Twelve Great Feasts (the main 12 holidays celebrated by the Russian Orthodox Church).

It is believed that the multi-colored domes of the Cathedral of St. Basil the Blessed in Red Square symbolize the beauty of Heavenly Jerusalem, which, according to legend, the holy fool saw in a dream.

MoSCoW Prioritization

What is moscow prioritization.

MoSCoW prioritization, also known as the MoSCoW method or MoSCoW analysis, is a popular prioritization technique for managing requirements. 

  The acronym MoSCoW represents four categories of initiatives: must-have, should-have, could-have, and won’t-have, or will not have right now. Some companies also use the “W” in MoSCoW to mean “wish.”

What is the History of the MoSCoW Method?

Software development expert Dai Clegg created the MoSCoW method while working at Oracle. He designed the framework to help his team prioritize tasks during development work on product releases.

You can find a detailed account of using MoSCoW prioritization in the Dynamic System Development Method (DSDM) handbook . But because MoSCoW can prioritize tasks within any time-boxed project, teams have adapted the method for a broad range of uses.

How Does MoSCoW Prioritization Work?

Before running a MoSCoW analysis, a few things need to happen. First, key stakeholders and the product team need to get aligned on objectives and prioritization factors. Then, all participants must agree on which initiatives to prioritize.

At this point, your team should also discuss how they will settle any disagreements in prioritization. If you can establish how to resolve disputes before they come up, you can help prevent those disagreements from holding up progress.

Finally, you’ll also want to reach a consensus on what percentage of resources you’d like to allocate to each category.

With the groundwork complete, you may begin determining which category is most appropriate for each initiative. But, first, let’s further break down each category in the MoSCoW method.

Start prioritizing your roadmap

Moscow prioritization categories.

Moscow

1. Must-have initiatives

As the name suggests, this category consists of initiatives that are “musts” for your team. They represent non-negotiable needs for the project, product, or release in question. For example, if you’re releasing a healthcare application, a must-have initiative may be security functionalities that help maintain compliance.

The “must-have” category requires the team to complete a mandatory task. If you’re unsure about whether something belongs in this category, ask yourself the following.

moscow-initiatives

If the product won’t work without an initiative, or the release becomes useless without it, the initiative is most likely a “must-have.”

2. Should-have initiatives

Should-have initiatives are just a step below must-haves. They are essential to the product, project, or release, but they are not vital. If left out, the product or project still functions. However, the initiatives may add significant value.

“Should-have” initiatives are different from “must-have” initiatives in that they can get scheduled for a future release without impacting the current one. For example, performance improvements, minor bug fixes, or new functionality may be “should-have” initiatives. Without them, the product still works.

3. Could-have initiatives

Another way of describing “could-have” initiatives is nice-to-haves. “Could-have” initiatives are not necessary to the core function of the product. However, compared with “should-have” initiatives, they have a much smaller impact on the outcome if left out.

So, initiatives placed in the “could-have” category are often the first to be deprioritized if a project in the “should-have” or “must-have” category ends up larger than expected.

4. Will not have (this time)

One benefit of the MoSCoW method is that it places several initiatives in the “will-not-have” category. The category can manage expectations about what the team will not include in a specific release (or another timeframe you’re prioritizing).

Placing initiatives in the “will-not-have” category is one way to help prevent scope creep . If initiatives are in this category, the team knows they are not a priority for this specific time frame. 

Some initiatives in the “will-not-have” group will be prioritized in the future, while others are not likely to happen. Some teams decide to differentiate between those by creating a subcategory within this group.

How Can Development Teams Use MoSCoW?

  Although Dai Clegg developed the approach to help prioritize tasks around his team’s limited time, the MoSCoW method also works when a development team faces limitations other than time. For example: 

Prioritize based on budgetary constraints.

What if a development team’s limiting factor is not a deadline but a tight budget imposed by the company? Working with the product managers, the team can use MoSCoW first to decide on the initiatives that represent must-haves and the should-haves. Then, using the development department’s budget as the guide, the team can figure out which items they can complete. 

Prioritize based on the team’s skillsets.

A cross-functional product team might also find itself constrained by the experience and expertise of its developers. If the product roadmap calls for functionality the team does not have the skills to build, this limiting factor will play into scoring those items in their MoSCoW analysis.

Prioritize based on competing needs at the company.

Cross-functional teams can also find themselves constrained by other company priorities. The team wants to make progress on a new product release, but the executive staff has created tight deadlines for further releases in the same timeframe. In this case, the team can use MoSCoW to determine which aspects of their desired release represent must-haves and temporarily backlog everything else.

What Are the Drawbacks of MoSCoW Prioritization?

  Although many product and development teams have prioritized MoSCoW, the approach has potential pitfalls. Here are a few examples.

1. An inconsistent scoring process can lead to tasks placed in the wrong categories.

  One common criticism against MoSCoW is that it does not include an objective methodology for ranking initiatives against each other. Your team will need to bring this methodology to your analysis. The MoSCoW approach works only to ensure that your team applies a consistent scoring system for all initiatives.

Pro tip: One proven method is weighted scoring, where your team measures each initiative on your backlog against a standard set of cost and benefit criteria. You can use the weighted scoring approach in ProductPlan’s roadmap app .

2. Not including all relevant stakeholders can lead to items placed in the wrong categories.

To know which of your team’s initiatives represent must-haves for your product and which are merely should-haves, you will need as much context as possible.

For example, you might need someone from your sales team to let you know how important (or unimportant) prospective buyers view a proposed new feature.

One pitfall of the MoSCoW method is that you could make poor decisions about where to slot each initiative unless your team receives input from all relevant stakeholders. 

3. Team bias for (or against) initiatives can undermine MoSCoW’s effectiveness.

Because MoSCoW does not include an objective scoring method, your team members can fall victim to their own opinions about certain initiatives. 

One risk of using MoSCoW prioritization is that a team can mistakenly think MoSCoW itself represents an objective way of measuring the items on their list. They discuss an initiative, agree that it is a “should have,” and move on to the next.

But your team will also need an objective and consistent framework for ranking all initiatives. That is the only way to minimize your team’s biases in favor of items or against them.

When Do You Use the MoSCoW Method for Prioritization?

MoSCoW prioritization is effective for teams that want to include representatives from the whole organization in their process. You can capture a broader perspective by involving participants from various functional departments.

Another reason you may want to use MoSCoW prioritization is it allows your team to determine how much effort goes into each category. Therefore, you can ensure you’re delivering a good variety of initiatives in each release.

What Are Best Practices for Using MoSCoW Prioritization?

If you’re considering giving MoSCoW prioritization a try, here are a few steps to keep in mind. Incorporating these into your process will help your team gain more value from the MoSCoW method.

1. Choose an objective ranking or scoring system.

Remember, MoSCoW helps your team group items into the appropriate buckets—from must-have items down to your longer-term wish list. But MoSCoW itself doesn’t help you determine which item belongs in which category.

You will need a separate ranking methodology. You can choose from many, such as:

  • Weighted scoring
  • Value vs. complexity
  • Buy-a-feature
  • Opportunity scoring

For help finding the best scoring methodology for your team, check out ProductPlan’s article: 7 strategies to choose the best features for your product .

2. Seek input from all key stakeholders.

To make sure you’re placing each initiative into the right bucket—must-have, should-have, could-have, or won’t-have—your team needs context. 

At the beginning of your MoSCoW method, your team should consider which stakeholders can provide valuable context and insights. Sales? Customer success? The executive staff? Product managers in another area of your business? Include them in your initiative scoring process if you think they can help you see opportunities or threats your team might miss. 

3. Share your MoSCoW process across your organization.

MoSCoW gives your team a tangible way to show your organization prioritizing initiatives for your products or projects. 

The method can help you build company-wide consensus for your work, or at least help you show stakeholders why you made the decisions you did.

Communicating your team’s prioritization strategy also helps you set expectations across the business. When they see your methodology for choosing one initiative over another, stakeholders in other departments will understand that your team has thought through and weighed all decisions you’ve made. 

If any stakeholders have an issue with one of your decisions, they will understand that they can’t simply complain—they’ll need to present you with evidence to alter your course of action.
