YOUTH MASS: The Parish
Pastoral Council and St Attracta’s Community School, working together, hope to have some youth involvement in our Vigil Mass in Tubbercurry.
This will hopefully begin next weekend, with some of our younger people taking part in the various ministries during Mass, e.g. Offertory, Gifts, Readings etc. In time, we might include music too – that would be truly a blessing. The young people involved are taking part in the Pope John Paul II Awards and the Papal Cross Awards. Many thanks to the school chaplaincy team for working with the Parish Pastoral Council and we pray this will be a blessing for all involved.
