PARISH COLLECTIONS
The priests of the parish are very grateful to the warm response given to the letter parishioners received last week detailing how the parish can be supported during the Covid 19 Pandemic, when regular weekday and Sunday Masses are suspended. Unfortunately, as stated on Parish Facebook, some families received letters, not in the name of head of household but one of the children. We are sorry for this administrative error and grateful for your understanding. During the past week many Sunday envelopes have been returned via the Parish Office and Parochial Houses. Others have taken the opportunity to establish Standing Orders with their bank or commence online payments, and when the Donate button on the parish webpage is up and running, that too will provide an opportunity for others to contribute.
Thank you very much for your generous support.
The start of the Parish Draw, which usually runs from the last Monday of May, will be delayed this year. Details on this will follow in the weeks ahead.
Many thanks also for the generous donations received for St Vincent de Paul and for Trócaire.
WEDDING NOTICE
As couples are having to defer their wedding celebrations to later dates due to Covid19 Pandemic, Fr Madden will be in the Parish Office on Sunday, May 17 from 1.00 pm to 3.00 pm to take any phone queries about upcoming weddings in 2020.
Those who have already rescheduled the date of their weddings do not need to ring.
