LENT

During the season of Lent people are invited to undertake some form of self-denial & to contribute towards the poor. We also invite people to join us each weekday (by webcam) during Lent for Mass at 11.00am or 7.30pm & to join with us in the recitation of the Rosary beforehand at 10.40am and 7.10pm.  The following link may be a useful prayer resource for families. – https:/www.armaghprays.com/lent-2021

TROCAIRE BOXES are available for collection at the back of the Churches or at the Parish Office.

We pray that despite the current lockdown restrictions this Lent will be a season of great grace and renewal for you & your family.  If restrictions are lifted our programme will be reviewed accordingly.

WELCOME TO THE PARISH FAMILY Today we greet Ada Rose Duffin and Finn Michael Higgins who were baptised recently.
