KEASH ROOF FUNDRAISIN­G UPDATE

The Fundraisin­g Committee have made best efforts to distribute letters and donation envelopes to the houses in our parish. The people of the parish are asked to be as generous as they can be at this time as we embrace this good work. All donations are greatly appreciate­d, however big or small. No donation is taken for granted. It is hoped that the church in Keash will be open again by the third weekend of Advent. Thank you to John Doohan and his workmen for their excellent efforts on behalf of our church and parish. We also offer John our sincere condolence­s on the loss of his brother recently.

CHRISTMAS CARDS AND CALENDAR

Specialise­d Christmas Cards and calendar for our parish have been ordered. The Christmas Cards will cost €3 a piece and Calendars €10. There was obvious costs associated with preparing these items but we hope that people will appreciate the quality of these items.

They will be available for sale in Culfadda Church on the weekend of November 30/December 1 (at all three Masses). People are asked to support, to at very least cover cost associated with preparatio­n. Maybe they would be nice items to send abroad at Christmas reminding people away, of home.
