Pre-signed Mass cards

In our Parish when a mass card is signed, be it a mass for the deceased, get well mass, or a special intention, the date in which the mass is to be offered is written on the card and is also published in our bulletin.

This assures the person getting the mass, and the family or person receiving it, if so desired, can attend, or at least they know when it is being offered and where.

Mass & Bouquet Cards are available for signing if you wish to get a mass in the parish. These cards are available in each of our Churches and the Parochial House/Parish Office.

We also have a selection of Mass Cards for Birthdays and Weddings available in the Parish Office.

Directives from the Diocese of Meath

for Celebration of Funeral & Wedding Masses

In our Parish, according to Diocesan guidelines, Eulogies are not part of the Funeral Mass; an option for a eulogy to take place is in the Funeral Home or in the Cemetery, after the burial.

In celebrations of the Eucharist, Readings at the Mass must be taken from the Bible (Lectionary).

Our church is a Sacred space with the Blessed Sacrament and sacred Music/Hymns only are permitted during the celebration of the Eucharist, be it at a Funeral or Wedding Mass.
