Another Big “Thank You” to all the parishioners who have made donations in recent weeks to help pay the bills. The Sunday “Basket Collection” is replaced by donation boxes at the back door to the Churches. We have spent over 2000e on keeping the Churches safe.

We encourage people to come to Mass during the weekdays which fulfils the Sunday obligation to avoid big numbers at the weekend. Adherence to social distancing guidelines is paramount, as are hand hygiene measures.


Wonderful OPEN-AIR CONFIRMATIONCEREMONIES took place in the School Yard in Caherline School  last Wednesday.  Well done to the 51 young people and all who played a part in making this memorable.  We look forward to Confirmation in Caherconlish School Yard this Saturday 11am.
