R. I. P.
We remember in our prayers Mary Hartford whose funeral took place during the week.
Please remember Mary’s Family and friends and all our deceased loved ones in your prayers.
Adoration
Do you have an hour to spend in Jesus’ presence ?
Adoration will resume next Thursday, 14th January following 10 am Mass in St. Patrick’s Church.
Adoration also takes place from 9am in St. Mary’s Church each Wednesday morning before 10 am Mass.
Fire extinguishers and External Speaker
Just before Christmas all parish properties were fitted with Fire Extinguishers and Fire Blankets.
Our thanks to Omnisys for their very generous donation towards them.
We ask everyone to familiarise themselves with the locations of the extinguishers and blankets. They can be found at all exits and are clearly marked with fire safety signs.
A new External Speaker was installed in St. Mary’s Church. This will be very welcome when it comes to funerals and the Easter ceremonies.
This was also made possible through the generosity of a parishioner who kindly sponsored it.
- In the coming weeks, the Finance Committee will announce the projects for this year and next year.
Your continued support is greatly appreciated and enables us to insure our Parish buildings are maintained to a very high standard.

- Confirmation & First Communion preparation
As we continue our journey towards receiving the Sacraments this year, we encourage families to attend Mass each weekend and keep an eye on our Parish Newsletter for information.
Enrolment Ceremonies for children preparing for First Communion will take place in the New Year (Dates to be advised).
Confirmation Candidates are invited to enroll on Saturday, 24th January at 7 pm in St. Mary’s Church, or Sunday, 1st February at 11:30 am in St. Mary’s Church, Julianstown.
Our Enrolment Ceremonies will include Parents, candidates and our Parish community.
All who wish to enroll for Confirmation in March are required to attend one of these Ceremonies. These Enrolment Ceremonies take place over two weekends to facilitate full participation.
If your child was Baptised outside our Parish, please remember to include an original Baptismal Certificate with the Enrolment Form. (Please staple the Certificate with the Form). The Enrolment Form is handed to the Celebrant as part of the Enrolment Ceremony.
If you haven’t received an Enrolment Form or if yours has been misplaced, please collect one from Fr. Brendan in the Sacristy after any Mass or call into our Parish Office.
This is a very exciting time for our young parishioners, their families and our Parish. We ask parishioners to pray for these children and all our young parishioners.
Marriage
Contact the Parish Office to advise of your intention to marry, to make sure the Church is available for your preferred date. (Naturally the earlier you do this the better). At that time, we will advise on the next steps.
