DAY FOR LIFE 2021
This weekend we celebrate the Day for Life. This year’s theme is “The Good Samaritan: A model of compassion.” In the context of the recent proposal to introduce assisted suicide, both in Ireland and the UK, this year’s Day for life message invites Catholics to consider a more positive and compassionate response to the care of people who are in the final stage of life. You can download this year’s message from www.councilforlife.ie
INVITATION TO EUCHARISTIC MINISTERS & READERS
As preparations are being made for the easing of restrictions, I invite Eucharistic Ministers and Readers who had opted out of these ministries during Covid to consider returning after 22nd October. Please contact our Parish Office so that you can be included in our rotas.
We will continue our booking system for the next few weeks for all weekend Masses and Thursday night Mass in Cullen.
