Sacraments in our Parish
Confirmation and First Communion
We welcome our Confirmation Candidates and their families to our first Enrolment Ceremony this weekend.
For those who were unable to attend this weekend we will have another opportunity to enroll next Sunday, 1st February at 11:30 am in St. Mary’s Church, Julianstown.
These Enrolment Ceremonies take place over two weekends to facilitate full participation.
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.
Confirmation Prayer
Lord, You send out Your Spirit to touch the hearts of all people,
so that they may believe in You and in Jesus whom You sent.
Look kindly on all candidates for Confirmation
as they listen to Your voice.
Open their hearts to Your Spirit
and bring to fulfillment
the good work that You have begun in them.
As we prepare these children for Confirmation,
make each of us an instrument of Your love.
Teach us to appreciate
what is holy in others,
and to be patient
with what we do not understand.
Deepen our faith in the Gospel
and help us to pass it on by our example.
We pray that You will continue
to guide us and sustain us.
Through Christ our Lord, Amen.
- Dates for Enrolment Ceremonies for children preparing for First Communion will be advised soon.
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.
Baptism
Our next Baptism preparation meeting takes place on Tuesday, 3rd February, 2026 at 7:30 pm in St. Patrick’s Parish Centre. If you wish to request Baptism for your child, please contact our Parish Office.
