The solemn and joyful scene of Easter Candles being lit by the congregation at St. Patrick's Church, Millstreet on tonight (Holy Saturday 2012) symbolising the end of Lent and the joy of the Resurrection at Eastertime. The uplifting hymns so wonderfully sung by the Church Choir also reflected this joy. A very Happy Easter to everyone....from all the Millstreet Website Team.

Canon John Fitzgerald, P.P. prepares to light the Paschal Candle in the presence of the Altar Servers outside St. Patrick's Church, Millstreet tonight - 7th April 2012. The Ceremony then continued within the Church. (S.R.)

On this Good Friday morning this is how Clara Mountain looked. The Cross was carefully taken down on Thursday, 5th April 2012.   A splendid new Cross will replace this.    In 1950 the Holy Year Cross was put in place on Clara Mountain’s summit.    It was replaced in 1967 and again in 1984.   Therefore the new Cross will be the fourth.   With hundreds of people attending, Holy Mass was celebrated on Clara Mountain in 2000 with a very special plaque unveiled on that historic 50th anniversary occasion by the late Tadhg O’Driscoll.   (S.R.) [see photos from that day - 21st of May 2000]

A gang has been using a simple but effective method of “fishing out” money from donation boxes embedded in church walls. Gardaí have arrested two Romanians after CCTV footage taken from a church in North-West Cork clearly revealed their unholy deed, using a simple method. Inspector Tony Sugrue, who is based in Kanturk, confirmed that gardaí had arrested two men, aged 19 and 46, in connection with thefts from churches in Millstreet, Ballydaly, and Rathmore.
