Eily’s Report – 2nd April
Dia is mhuire díobh go léir a cáirde and welcome to my Report.
Fools Day is over and the clocks are put forward and the sun is shining, what more can we ask for? Schools are closed for the week, so let’s all be merry and bright.
Our Easter ceremonies went very well. A great number of people attended the Penitential Celebrations on Wednesday evening where priests from other parts of the Dioceses sat in our church to hear confessions. Holy Thursday evening also drew fine crowd and on Good Friday the Church was all but full for the final story of the Passion of Christ, before the joyous nine o’clock Mass on Saturday night to celebrate the Risen Christ. We had five priests on the alter and the choir excelled themselves, especially in the rendering on The Gloria at the end and the Congregation responded with a rousing round of applause. The priest thanked all those who helped in any way to make our Easter ceremonies the wonderful event that it was.
Truly Spectacular Rás Mumhan 2024 Superbly Filmed

We were blessed to meet with all three splendid people again this year as they filmed the highly prestigious Cycle Event outside St. Patrick’s Church, Millstreet. We also thank Michelle of Sliabh Luachra Cycling Club for alerting us to the magnificent Tik Tok film footage. Look out for some local faces in the outstanding feature! (S.R.)

Eily’s Report – 26th March
Dia is mhuire díobh go léir a cáirde and welcome to my Report.
Holy Week, the last week of Lent. The very thought fills us with joy and the expectation of a glorious Easter with the Sun dancing in the early morning sky. But before all of that let us stop and think of the rest of this week. The week when Christ died for us on the Cross on Calvary. The past five weeks of Lent have dragged by as we made our sacrifices whether big or small in preparation for the death of Jesus on Good Friday and now with only a few days to go let us up our efforts for the one last heartfelt push in His name before we let it all hang out again and feast on our goodies, go back to the smoke or tipple or whatever, happy in the thought that we did our bit.
Shop Assistant Wanted for Weekends and Summertime
Shop Assistant wanted for 8-12 hours at weekends and potentially more in the summer months.
The role: assist with daily tasks, including stock, cleaning and assisting customers.

Lourdes Pilgrimage Easter 2024 – Thanks for Your Support
Two 5th year students from Millstreet Community School, Holly Saunders and Aoife Casey, will be travelling as helpers with the Irish Pilgrimage Trust at Easter. They will be joining up with Group 126. The girls set out before Christmas to fundraise to cover their fare/accommodation costs (€750/person) and maybe raise some funds to go towards Group 126’s fundraising efforts. Well, as a result of their hard work, the assistance of their families and the support of the local community they raised an incredible total: €4243.25. Once the fares are taken out of this, €2743.25 will contributed to towards Group 126’s fundraising. Here s a special message from Group 126’s leader, Vivienne Rattigan:
To The Millstreet Community,
Once again Group 126 of The Irish Pilgrimage Trust wants to thank the people of Millstreet for their generosity in supporting the group travelling to Lourdes at Easter. The money raised covered the fare for 5th year volunteer student carers Aoife Casey and Holly Saunders. The surplus goes to the group’s general fund. Each group has a target of €18,000. All adult volunteer carers pay their own way.
The Millstreet Community achieves two things. Firstly, it gives financial support. Secondly it has promoted and fostered the spirit of volunteerism in the young people in Millstreet Community School down through the years. A special thanks also to the parents and friends of Holly and Aoife and to Mr. John Magee, school chaplain, who liaises with us from year to year.

Eily’s Report – 19th March
Dia is mhuire díobh go léir a cáirde and welcome to my Report.
St. Patrick’s Day has come and gone and for us here in Millstreet, it was nothing short of a Showstopper. From early morning the sun shone out and kept the glow on all the events of the day. Our wonderful Pipe band played us into 11.30 Mass and as they paraded in tune all the way to the alter, you got that spine-chilling feeling of pride, even emotion. Founder member Tim O’Shea was there for photographs while stalwarts like the spritely Michael McCarthy and Brenden O’Sullivan led the group. It’s at moments like this that you weigh up the important part that things like your own pipe band play in a community and how important it is that we value them to the full. We had no less than three priests on the alter for Mass. Fr. Billy Radley, Fr. O’Shea (Kilcorney) and Fr. Sean Tucker. They were joined by Canon John at Holy Communion time. The band played the full church out after mass ended before rushing off the take part in the St. Patrick’s Day parade in Killarney and were back again to take part in ours at 5.
Open Day at Macroom Centre on Thursday 21st March
