 PRAYER AROUND THE CROSS IN MILLSTREET CHRUCH

Monday 17^th November at 8.00p.m.

This month’s theme: Remembrance & Saints.

You are warmly invited to a special, reflective “Prayer around the Cross” where we will remember all our dead, taking time to reflect on life without them; to pray for the repose of their souls; to seek their intercession and to celebrate our saints in heaven. Grief reminds us that death is not a goodbye, but the longest and hardest “see you later”. (Ullie Kaye)
