Family Masses in May
Family Masses take place on 6th and 7th May. As usual there will be a music practice from half an hour before the start of each mass, and we warmly welcome any children or adults who would like to join us singing. We will sing some of the hymns from the First Communion service, so we'd be delighted if any of the children would join us.
Holy Communion at Home
If anyone is housebound and would like to receive Holy Communion – we can organise to have it brought to you safely.
The Rosary
The Rosary will be recited before Mass in Glengoole on Saturday evenings. Volunteers to lead the rosary are welcome.
Collection for Flowers in Gortnahoe
At mass on Sunday 30th April in Gortnahoe church there will be a second collection for the flowers. We are very grateful to the flowers group for all their work and generosity throughout the year, with the beautiful displays.
