Season of Creation 2021 From the 1st of Sept until the Feast of St. Francis, 4th Oct all Christian Churches are encouraged to celebrate the Season of Creation, an annual celebration of prayer and action inviting us to think more deeply about what is happening at present to the Earth and the destruction of the environment which threatens our world. Let us encourage one another during the season of Creation by praying with and for creation, encouraging small actions in our homes and parishes to try to live more sustainable lives.

A Fulsome Welcome back / Céad míle fáilte: We are now permitted to have 50% of capacity in our churches which means in effect that everyone is now welcome to attend. Many who were afraid to attend or felt unwelcome with the restricted numbers are now invited to join us safely. We still will need to have social distancing, hand hygiene, and mask wearing for the foreseeable future with a full church expected to be permitted in late Oct.
