They will be remembered at the 11.00 am Masses during the month of November. SATURDAY 29th NOVEMBER @ 10.00 am: We will have our annual parish Mass to remember in a special way all who have been buried from our parish in the past year. Their relatives and friends will receive a personal invitation to this Mass. Indeed, all parishioners who have lost a loved one at any time, whether or not they have been buried from our parish church, are invited to this Mass. This is a special November moment when we gather as a parish community to remember our loved ones, who have died, to pray for them and to pray for each other. MISSIO (APF) BOXES: These will be collected on the weekend of 15th/16th November. If you have a box, which needs to be emptied, please bring it to Mass on that weekend. Boxes can be left with Father Paddy prior to the 15th November if necessary. With thanks.
