HOLY ROSARY CHURCH

Holy Rosary Church, is temporarily closed for extensive necessary renovations which include a new roof, installation of new altar furniture, interior redecoration and provision of toilets all of which will make Holy Rosary Church a warm and inviting space for the people of Ballinascreen and Desertmartin to come together to worship the Lord and grow in their own personal relationship with him.

As the number of priests in active ministry fall, due to age and retirement, it is essential that we have a church that is convenient and accessible to all, for the times when a Sunday Mass in all 6 churches might not be possible.

For the duration of the temporary closure there will be no 12 noon Sunday Mass, weekday 10.00 am Mass will be held in St Eugene’s Church, Moneyneena as will the 6.00 pm Vigil Mass on Saturday evenings.

Mass for the Do This In Memory Of Me First Communion Programme will take place at the 6.00 pm Vigil Mass in Moneyneena.
