The Sacrament of Reconciliation is a healing remedy for our sins, presented to God in the presence of the priest. Although serious matters should be brought before the priest when available, our lesser sins are healed through the celebration of Mass or with sincere contrition & good works.
​
-
Fr. Derek will provide the (appropriately socially distant) Sacrament of Penance & Reconciliation by appointment,
or as requested anytime by the homebound, the sick & the dying.
​
Please contact the Pastoral Area Office for all appointments, emergencies, & special needs (01 8354138 / 087 1911902).
PARISH FINANCIAL CONTRIBUTIONS
We are aware that these are very difficult and worrying times for all of us. Our Parish income has suffered as a result of the imposed restrictions due to the Coronavirus. If you are able to offer some regular financial support, via Standing Order, we would be most grateful.
Those who very kindly contribute to the Family Offering via the parish envelopes may wish to continue using the envelopes by collecting them at home and bringing them back to the parish when it is safe to do so. Alternatively, you may wish to consider replacing your envelope donation to contribute with a standing order.
Standing Order Forms can be downloaded and returned to the Pastoral Area Office. Many thanks.
IMPORTANT Garda Vetting Announcement
If you have recently completed a Garda vetting form but have not received or replied to an email from the National Vetting Bureau, please contact the Pastoral Area Office. (The email may have found its way into your Junk or Spam box) It is vitally important that the Vetting process is completed as soon as possible. Please let us know if you need any help with this.

Pope Francis is inviting us to pray the Rosary, that as we contemplate the face of Christ with the heart of Mary our Mother, we will be even more united as a spiritual family and find help to overcome this time of trial during the pandemic.
He has written two special prayers to be said at the end of the Rosary.

Reflective Prayer
RESOURCES FOR MASS
Our online mass is no longer on a Friday. We hope to be able to stream one of our Sunday masses in the very near future.
Spiritual Communion Prayer
​
My Jesus,
I believe that you are present
in the Most Holy Sacrament.
I love you above all things
and I desire to receive you in my soul.
Since I cannot at this moment
receive you sacramentally,
Come at least spiritually into my heart.
I embrace you
as if you were already there
And unite myself wholly to you.
Never permit me
to be separated from you.
Amen.

After two years of private blessings due to COVID restrictions, we are delighted that we can return to public cemetery blessings for 2022.
Please see below the Schedule of Blessings:
Cemetery Blessings 2021
This year, again, we find ourselves unable to gather together in the usual way for our annual cemetery blessing of graves due to current health restrictions and guidelines. The graves will still be blessed privately this year and a video of the short prayer service will be posted here on our website. To view the video in full screen please choose the video then click the full screen symbol
We will also be remembering all our loved ones buried in the cemeteries in our Pastoral Area at the weekend and online Masses closest to the time the blessings would normally take place.
