Baptism Preparation Team

We are delighted to announce that we are preparing to host Baptismal Preparation meetings in September.

It is hoped that we would host nine meetings a year with one team of two facilitating each half hour meeting.

Thank you to all who have already volunteered to be part of this team.

If you would like to volunteer to join the Baptismal Preparation Team, please contact Carol in our Parish office (Phone 01-8412647 or e-mail secretary@sjparish.ie).

From September all parents/guardians wishing to bring their Child for Baptism will be required to attend a Baptismal Preparation

If you would like to register your child/children for Baptism, please contact the Parish Office.

Moorechurch Cemetery

The Committee have had correspondence asking us to remind visitors to Moorechurch Cemetery not to dump rubbish, dead flowers, wreaths, containers, soil, plastic bottles etc., at the gate and in the ditches around the cemetery but to bring it home with them.

We understand only a small number of people are leaving their rubbish behind, however the practice is distressing for those who are coming to visit loved ones buried in the Cemetery.

Nothing should be left behind!  Thank you.

Sixth Class Graduations

We wish every blessing on all the Sixth class children from St. Patrick’s and Whitecross Schools who are graduating this week.
