Celebrating St. Brigid in Millstreet 2023

As we come to the end of the very first St. Brigid’s Bank Holiday on this Monday, 6th Feb. 2023 we reflect on the Feast Day itself on Wednesday, 1st Feb. when many people acquired a special St. Brigid’s Cross in Church to place in their homes over the next year.   Here we meet Margaret Kelleher and Betty O’Regan displaying the precious Crosses near the statue of St. Brigid in memory of the late Breeda Kelleher of Station Road who always arranged to renew the Cross on the statue every 1st Feb. having made scores of Crosses for distribution to very many people.   This year, Breeda’s son, Joseph, kindly arranged to collect the rushes necessary for the making of the Crosses and Margaret Kelleher has superbly continued Breeda’s tradition in making several Crosses and varnished them also for distribution not only in Church but far beyond – very especially remembering Breeda’s inspiring annual gesture in honour of St. Brigid.   Tap on the images to enlarge.  (S.R.)

Christmas 2022 Message

CHRISTMAS PRAYERLord, as we celebrate your birth among us may our hearts be filled with the joy of your presence.

 May our families be blessed from the abundance of your goodness.

May our world be filled with the wonder of your peace.

May we rejoice and be glad that you are not far away from anyone of us

this Christmas.   

Amen.

SILENT NIGHT

HOLY NIGHT

SON OF GOD

LOVES PURE LIGHT

RADIANT BEAMS

FROM THY HOLY FACE

WITH THE DAWN

OF REDEEMING GRACE

JESUS LORD AT THY BIRTH

JESUS LORD AT THY BIRTH

 Dear Parishioners,

 The past three years have seen a lot of changes in our Parish,

our country and our world.  Changes that previously would

have been hard to imagine, but changes that have impacted

all our lives in some way. 

 This Christmas we remember all those who have had

to leave their homeland and travel to different parts of the world

to seek refuge and we also remember those who are unable to

leave their homes. Our hope for 2023 is that peace will be restored

in the troubled parts of our world.

 The changes in our Pastoral area came with Dromtariffe not having

a resident priest any longer and this has impacted on all our

Parishes and on our duties.

Here in this Parish, we are blessed with a strong faith community,

and this weekend I want to acknowledge the work and commitment

of the volunteers in each of our 3 Churches throughout the year.

A sincere thank you to our choirs, readers, Eucharistic Ministers,

basket collectors, altar society, those who erect our Sacred

Spaces and Cribs, our weekly Adorers and Adoration Committee,

The Legion of Mary members and those who are on our Pastoral,

Finance and Safeguarding committees. Your support together

with the support of the Parish Secretary and Sacristans

is greatly appreciated.

 I ask God’s blessing on all families in our Parish and think of your

loved ones who won’t be home this year.

 I also remember those in our Parish who are worried, anxious,

troubled, sick, grieving or alone this Christmas.

 As we prepare for Christmas let us take a moment to remember the

 message of Christmas, which is a message of hope. This hope comes

from the birth of Our Lord wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in

a humble manager because from such a small beginning the wonder

of God’s love for us can be seen and this is what gives us hope.

 To conclude I want to thank you for your continued support  

and may the greetings of joy, peace and goodwill be yours this

Christmas Season.

A Very Happy Birthday to Fr. Paddy O’Byrne

On this Feast of Our Lady of the Most Holy Rosary, 7th Oct. 2022 Canon John Fitzgerald, P.P. revealed at the beginning of the 7.30pm First Friday Mass that today is Fr. Paddy O’Byrne’s 87th Birthday.   Fr. Paddy concelebrated Mass with Canon John which was in memory of the late Eily May, Brendan and Connie Hickey.   After Mass we photographed Fr. Paddy with members of the Hickey Family.  We also learned from Diarmuid Murphy that the late James Anthony Murphy would have been 34 on this Friday also.   Tap on the images below to enlarge.  (S.R.)

Magnificent Marian Grotto Beautifully Restored & Blessed

On Sunday afternoon, 2nd Oct. 2022, in the exquisite setting of St. Joseph’s Gardens, West End, Millstreet – formerly the location of Presentation Convent since 1840 – a truly historic occasion took place when Fr. Paddy O’Byrne blessed the magnificently restored Marian Grotto in the presence of a very impressed congregation.   Due to the inspirational dedication of an enthusiastic Group which included John Casey, Eugene Barrett, Hughie Dunne, Pauline Byrne and Tony McHugh – the hugely successful Project of the restoration of the original Grotto has been supremely realised with its new Statue of Our Lady (The original Statue was presented some years ago to the people of Sherkin Island in West Cork.), its marvellously creative landscaping with beautiful floral arrangements and its splendid Welcome Bench.  Sr. Kathleen Given representing the Presentation Sisters shares a central guiding role also (although prefers to be in the quiet background) and was most impressed as was Fr. Paddy O’Byrne when John and the inspiring Team of Volunteers first suggested the Project.   Tony also indicates that further development at the Marian Grotto is envisaged.   Sincere congratulations to All on such an amazing achievement.   In time to come a special “Nuns’ Walk” sign is to be put in place and it will then be indicated if public access is permitted.   Everyone present at Sunday’s event was very kindly presented with a delicious Ice Cream Cone!!   Here we share some 28 images from Sunday’s very special event at St. Joseph’s Gardens.  Tap on the pictures to enlarge.  (S.R.)

Exquisite autumn colours provided a glorious setting for the Blessing of the Marian Grotto by Fr. Paddy O’Byrne.

Fr. Paddy presents a beautiful Rosary Beads to John who places it on the Statue of Our Lady.

We recorded a special radio interview with members of the wonderfully dedicated Team. This will be featured on “Radio Treasures” in the not-too-distant future. We shall indicate in advance of the broadcast.
