Awareness Campaign  When an adult has a sudden cardiac arrest, his or her survival depends greatly on immediately getting CPR from someone nearby. From the moment of collapse, the chance of survival decreases by 7-10% per minute when CPR is not being performed. Hesitation cost lives.  We hope our simple campaign message of “Check, Call, Compress” will help save lives and improve the outcomes of those who suffer a cardiac arrest.

Check is the person unresponsive and not breathing?

Call Call 999 or 112

Compress Push hard and fast in the centre of the chest until help arrives. 

See posters at Church entrances. 

We now have a Defibrillator in our Parish Centre.

 

God the Father, Son and Holy Spirit

God the Father,

we praise you and we bless you

because you are the Father of Jesus,

and because you wish to be our Father also

according to your love and mercy.

Blest are you, O Lord, through eternity!

 

God the Son,

we praise you and we bless you

because you are the Son of the Father’s love,

and because you wish to be the eldest brother also

of all the children of God.

Blest are you, O Lord, through eternity!

 

God the Holy Spirit,

we praise you and we bless you

because you are the love of the Father and the Son

springing up like a fire out of their affection,

and because you wish to dwell in our hearts also

like a furnace of love.

Blest are you, O Lord, through eternity!

 

God the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit,

we praise you and we bless you

because you are God surpassing all praise

yet you accept the stammering of our adoration.

To you we direct our love forever and ever.

Blest are you, O Lord, through eternity!

(Lucien Deiss, Biblical Prayers)

Ireland is home to Catholics from many countries and where the Holy Mass is celebrated in many different languages. Migrants leave their homes in search of a better life and face the difficult experience of migration in its various forms. As Christians, let us celebrate the diversity all around us, reach out to and pray for all migrants to emphasize the unity of the human family and the values of acceptance, hospitality and love of neighbour today on Penecost Sunday.

Prayer for Pentecost

God, whose Spirit is known

In the bringing together of those

Who were once kept apart,

You have announced good news

In the very human accents

Which have become most dear to us.

 

And so we pray:

Come, Holy Spirit,

And celebrate in us that love of God in Jesus Christ

Which need never be measured and will never run short,

And for whose cadences you have given us,

Without distrinction, the ears to hear.
