CHURCH NEWS
As from Ash Wednesday, there will be a guided Holy Hour each Wednesday evening from 8 p.m. to 9 p.m. This will be done via our webcam while the Government restrictions remain in place. From the comfort of your own home, you could be part of a relaxing and peaceful hour in the presence of Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament. I invite you to consider taking this on for Lent individually or as a family; parish priest Fr Paul Casey – telephone 071 9164143; email drumahaire@kilmorediocese.ie
