Circle of Prayer:
At this Easter Season, we give thanks to
parishioners, members of the Visiting the Wise Group and Tuesday
attendees at Leopardstown Park Hospital who are praying for the
children preparing for First Holy Communion and who attend the
parish schools or St Michael’s House. The children prepared brightly
coloured name cards and many parishioners chose one at the end of
daily/weekly mass. A number of parishioners have been in touch to
find out when the child they are praying for is receiving the
Sacrament of First Holy Communion. The dates are as follows: St
Mary’s – 25th April; Our Lady of the Wayside and Gaelscoil Thaobh
na Coille – 9th May, St Michael’s House: 11th May; Holy Trinity and
St Patrick’s – 16th May; Church of Ireland – 23rd May. The children
and their families appreciate that they are part of a parish “circle of
prayer” leading up to the sacrament of First Eucharist.
