A Message from the Parish Pastoral Council (PPC)  “We are attempting to make contact and keep in touch with as many members of the Parish Community as possible and so, we are sending out teams of two to visit the newer areas of the Parish. Members will identify themselves as representing the Parish.  Please feel free to make any comments or suggestions about the Parish”.

Visitors

Bishop Cullinan has asked our Parish to give hospitality to a group of three religious Sisters from around 17th August to 5th September 2016.

The Sisters are from a recently founded Community and are called the Stella Matutina Sisters (Our Lady the Morning Star).

They are coming here to pray and discern and may wish to invite people in the Parish to praywith them.

They will live in the Parish residence and we willask them to introduce themselves at the Sunday Masses.
