Parish Finance Committee

St. Patrick’s Church - Gutters

On Thursday, work was concluded on the replacement of the Gutters on St. Patrick’s Church.

This work was very necessary as the gutters were not sufficient to take the quantity of water coming off the roof. There was only one down pipe and one drain.

The new system has two down pipes, two drains and bigger gutters.

We will advise cost at a later date but would like to thank all concerned.

Do you have an hour to spend in prayer ?

Adoration will resume after 10 am Mass in St. Patrick’s Church, next Thursday, 17th September.

Adoration continues in St. Marys Church from 9 am each Wednesday followed by Mass at 10 am.
