GLENBEIGH GLENCAR NOTIFICATION OF MASS ATTENDANCE
In guidance with present government protocols numbers attending Mass are restricted at any one Mass. As you know the obligation to attend Mass on Sundays and Holy days of obligation has been suspended during the pandemic.
Because of this parishioners who normally attend Mass on a Saturday or Sunday pre Covid-19 can be accommodated at Masses throughout the week taking into account the reduced capacity of the church at this present time. It would be helpful if parishioners and visitors could let us know what Mass they plan to attend by phoning the pasish office on Monday, Tuesday, and Friday mornings in light of the above.
DEATHS
Sympathy is extended to the relatives of the following who died recently. Hanora (Nora) Leanord (nee Quirke) Avenue Drive, Glenbeigh and Bansha, Co Tipperary
Dr. Billy Prendiville, Cluin Carrig, Killorglin who served as G.P. in Glenbeigh and Glencar for many years.
May Nora and Dr. Billy rest in peace.
