Monday, 17th March - Feast of St. Patrick:
The true purpose of this annual Feast Day of our National Apostle and the Principal Patron of our country is to celebrate the bringing of faith in God and Jesus Christ to our country. Today we celebrate our faith, our culture, our Irish heritage by brushing up on the little bit of Irish we may have by speaking the ‘cúpla focal’. As we give praise and thanks to God this day for the dedicated mission and ministry of Patrick, let us also pray that we may live ‘in the brightness of the glory of Jesus Christ our Redeemer’. Masses on Monday, March 17th - Glengoole at 9am and Gortnahoe at 10.30am.

Trocaire Boxes are available in both Churches.
Trocaire Boxes are still available in both Churches for the support of those in need in the Third World. Please ensure that you take a box home with you or even one for a neighbour who cannot attend Mass. A little can make a great difference for others.

Hail, glorious St. Patrick, dear Saint of our Isle,
On us thy poor children bestow a sweet smile.
And now thou art high in thy mansions above,
On Erin’s green valleys look down in thy love.
On Erin’s green valleys, on Erin’s green valleys,
On Erin’s green valleys, look down in thy love
.

St. Patrick's Evening Prayer
Blessed be God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit; Blessed be God for ever. I will exalt you, O God my King, I will extol you, my God and King, and bless your name forever and ever.
