LETTER FROM ARCHBISHOP TO PEOPLE this weekend. (2050- No Priests: No People: No Churches???!!). Presently there are 73 priests including all those who are APs (associated pastors)/ 48 parishes/ 88 Churches. The average age of priests is 67 years. In 2027 there will be 35 priests under 75. This means there will be big changes in organising parish life with the formation of pastoral units. This calls for parish pastoral leadership teams in surrounding parishes to work together. There will be less Masses and new Mass times will need to be arranged. Archbishop Kieran O’Reilly asks people to engage during autumn in the discussions about future pastoral units which are to be formed by December. We go forward together with the help of the Holy Spirit and confidence in the Risen Christ working with us.

Diocesan pilgrimage to Knock: Sunday 7th August

No wash up for Granny or Grandad today! Pope Francis has established a World Day for Grandparents and the Elderly, which takes place for the second time this Sunday 24 July on the theme ‘In old age they will still bear fruit (Ps 92:15)’. "Grandparents and the elderly are the bread that nourishes our lives”. So let us celebrate grandparents and those of an older generation (both living and dead), who have given lives of dedicated service to their families and communities. We are connected with them. We owe them a lot and just as they took care of us in our youth, our society must make sure to do the same for them in their weaknesses and declining years. Maybe grandchildren might like to bring grandparents for an Ice Cream today instead of the other way round!
