"Today, as Lent begins," he said, "let us prepare to journey through this time as an opportunity for conversion and inner renewal, in listening to the Word of God, in caring for our brothers and sisters, who are in great need. Here, let us never forget the poor people of Ukraine, Palestine, and Israel, who suffer so much. Let us pray for these brothers and sisters who suffer from war. Let us continue our help and intensify prayer, especially to request the gift of peace in the world". </p><div>In Ireland of old, great emphasis was placed on giving up things for Lent. In these days what comes most readily to mind is lightening the burden of those bowed down in whatever small way we can. Yes, as we consider the world around us, what we see can get us all down, so mind-numbing is it. We who have just exited our decade of centenaries bringing back all the killing of WWI, our War of Indepen- dence and our Civil War now see (if not, thankfully, at home) senseless war still raging -- even in the Holy Land. Our one prayer, then, today and for the next forty days, has to be that some way through and out of all the seemingly unstoppable killing be found and agreed on by the shaking of hands. And here I think of the play <i>Three Sisters </i>(1901) by that noble Russian writer -- one of the many in his country in times past -- Anton Chekhov. At the very end of a play which included gunshots and death, the sisters come to the front to utter what we could call not just their own but all of humanity's half-prayer, half-desperate cry about human affairs and where at all they are going: "If only we knew why we live, why we suffer! If only we knew!" </div>Parish Web Sechttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12189700105189064692noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5655462208407644485.post-12625833462191312262023-12-24T18:23:00.088+00:002023-12-29T17:18:02.916+00:00Happy Christmas<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh80tjwgrlpLdvxlj40isefNvB-omyWu5FGJ2fbCca5oe3j93-5dL73dNNWHNiV2WCxqeo2pLV8yH21ADJ0E1beY3BYE27SHprfGoXA7SCeUVe2fHorc7zTM44DyfggD_59e6qLci3mvpu1KJibdJRFj__2zcvRkpHVKMF_Ddd_pi4-fEBXZ5lXjB1eO94/s677/Saggart%20Church%20Dec%2023.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="677" data-original-width="542" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh80tjwgrlpLdvxlj40isefNvB-omyWu5FGJ2fbCca5oe3j93-5dL73dNNWHNiV2WCxqeo2pLV8yH21ADJ0E1beY3BYE27SHprfGoXA7SCeUVe2fHorc7zTM44DyfggD_59e6qLci3mvpu1KJibdJRFj__2zcvRkpHVKMF_Ddd_pi4-fEBXZ5lXjB1eO94/w320-h400/Saggart%20Church%20Dec%2023.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">The photo above shows Saggart Church as seen from near the carpark in Citywest hotel. In our churches we are about to celebrate the very joyous occasion that is Christmas every year. But last year and this one, we in Saggart couldn't and cannot but think also of all the Ukrainian refugees spending Christmas in our local hotel. They have been torn from their families, wives from husbands, children from their fathers, far away from their homes and living togther as best they can in one room. Not so long ago, before Covid and the war, this hotel was for us all here in Saggart somewhere to relax, celebrate, have a good time. In February 2020 it was buzzing with excitement as an election count centre. The following month, Covid struck and the hotel soon became a vaccination centre. Then in February 2022 Russia invaded Ukraine and the wave of refugees that followed spread as far as Ireland, with the Citywest Hotel becoming a refugee-reception centre and, later, a 'transit hub'. All had changed utterly, yes indeed, and an unspeakable terror had been born. Whenever I bump into the elderly man I first met at the St Patrick's Day parade last year accompanied by his ever-so-brave wife pushing his wheelchair, I find I am simply lost for words. All I can do is say 'Hello' in Ukrainian, one of the very few words I know, as cheerily as I can. Thoughts like these cannot but stay with us through this festive season as will also the horror taking place at the moment in the land of Jesus's birth, another sad event threatening to drown out the joyous singing of the angels.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">We wish each other, then, a Christmas as happy as can be in these circumstances. And there is definitely something happy-making in this piece of news: we can convey a Christmas greeting to our Ukrainian guests at the same time as we do to each other, since we both, Ukrainian Orthodox and Irish Catholics, now celebrate Christmas on the 25th of December. And so:</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span><b>Happy Christmas</b>, <b>Nollaig Shona</b>,<br /></span><span><b>З Різдвом Христовим </b></span></span><span face="arial, sans-serif" style="background-color: white; color: #4d5156; font-size: 14px;">[z rizdvom khrystovym]</span></div>Parish Web Sechttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12189700105189064692noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5655462208407644485.post-14578570774228179232023-12-15T14:45:00.003+00:002023-12-15T14:47:39.443+00:00Mass Times for Christmas<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjlC1_31fMYGREjVp4y483CqG-43phFgDZq2DufN14Pd4_6MeN29r-XgM2_fm0YS_laYqK-464HqEVAAQTDUEmDHzifzuc6FTFLEfrzOcSOOah4bYCnNjt-WYcIxWK_2fVeNusPvxHK7JKJ9GI_v55_8QpIMamotDcAMXvE51PoTm0pnhFpGRChMlEjaTQ/s482/Christmas%20Masses%202023.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="415" data-original-width="482" height="345" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjlC1_31fMYGREjVp4y483CqG-43phFgDZq2DufN14Pd4_6MeN29r-XgM2_fm0YS_laYqK-464HqEVAAQTDUEmDHzifzuc6FTFLEfrzOcSOOah4bYCnNjt-WYcIxWK_2fVeNusPvxHK7JKJ9GI_v55_8QpIMamotDcAMXvE51PoTm0pnhFpGRChMlEjaTQ/w400-h345/Christmas%20Masses%202023.png" width="400" /></a></div><p></p>Parish Web Sechttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12189700105189064692noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5655462208407644485.post-34064134695979152162023-12-10T15:29:00.001+00:002023-12-10T15:29:56.184+00:00Carol Service 17th December<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjhFIJiB45aJgRBnrXDYbI8LDk1_cdqQioAW9aMpBy9OPpRqd5PSD67jgQid_bik-A1SK-B_NNPJh96tHmbuFZnmp2q4O0fdBeOYNlNrqoa6qXgzRUdUo_cA1PEBAM3J2Dw4T9uZZ75iHohx4bp1wSdSGThjkyD4zRJlZgdeRBzDwmC6_JfA5CLhzoj1vk/s594/Carol%20Service.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="594" data-original-width="408" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjhFIJiB45aJgRBnrXDYbI8LDk1_cdqQioAW9aMpBy9OPpRqd5PSD67jgQid_bik-A1SK-B_NNPJh96tHmbuFZnmp2q4O0fdBeOYNlNrqoa6qXgzRUdUo_cA1PEBAM3J2Dw4T9uZZ75iHohx4bp1wSdSGThjkyD4zRJlZgdeRBzDwmC6_JfA5CLhzoj1vk/w275-h400/Carol%20Service.png" width="275" /></a></div><div><p class="MsoTitle" style="text-align: center;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size: 26pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Georgia; mso-bidi-font-size: 48.0pt;">Carol Service<o:p></o:p></span></p>

Sunday 1 January 2023. It makes for interesting reading at a moment
when the world is in such great turmoil. Pick out the parts
that say something to you. Here is what this writer picked out:</p><p>
</p><p><b>2.</b><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"><b> </b> </span>Covid-19 plunged us into a dark
night. It destabilized our daily lives, upset our plans and routines, and
disrupted the apparent tranquillity of even the most affluent societies. It
generated disorientation and suffering and caused the death of great numbers of
our brothers and sisters.</p>
<p>Amid a whirlwind of unexpected challenges and facing a situation confusing
even from a scientific standpoint, the world’s healthcare workers mobilized to
relieve immense suffering and to seek possible remedies. At the same time,
political authorities had to take measures to organize and manage efforts to
respond to the emergency.</p><p>
In addition to its physical aspects, Covid-19 led to a general malaise in
many individuals and families; the long periods of isolation and the various
restrictions on freedom contributed to this malaise, with significant long-term
effects.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> <span></span></span></p><a name='more'></a><p></p><p><!--[if gte mso 9]><xml>

</p><p><b>4.</b><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"><b> </b> </span>[A]t the very moment when we dared
to hope that the darkest hours of the Covid-19 pandemic were over, a terrible
new disaster befell humanity. We witnessed the onslaught of another scourge:
another war, to some extent like that of Covid-19, but driven by culpable human
decisions. The war in Ukraine is reaping innocent victims and spreading
insecurity, not only among those directly affected, but in a widespread and
indiscriminate way for everyone, also for those who, even thousands of
kilometres away, suffer its collateral effects – we need but think of grain
shortages and fuel prices.</p>
<p>Clearly, this is not the post-Covid era we had hoped for or expected. This
war, together with all the other conflicts around the globe, represents a
setback for the whole of humanity and not merely for the parties directly
involved. While a vaccine has been found for Covid-19, suitable solutions have
not yet been found for the war. Certainly, the virus of war is more difficult
to overcome than the viruses that compromise our bodies, because it comes, not
from outside of us, but from within the human heart.</p>

In 1845 Don John Bosco, an Italian priest opened a night school for boys in Valdocco. In the following years, he opened several more schools, and in 1857 drew up a set of rules for his helpers, which became the Rule of the Society of St. Francis de Sales, which Pope Pius IX approved definitively in 1873. The Society continues to operate worldwide; in 2000, it counted more than 17,000 members in 2,711 houses.</p><p>The enthralling story of the great modern apostle of youth, Saint John Bosco, and his best-loved pupil who became a saint, Dominic Savio is one that resonates in our society today. Blessed with tremendous natural and supernatural gifts, including a wonderful sense of humour, Saint John Bosco overcame overwhelming obstacles to help deprived children find a better life He was a juggler, magician, acrobat, tailor, teacher and writer -John Bosco became all of these in his efforts to lead boys and girls to God. A prayer was the price of admission to his shows; a friendly contest to match skill or strength was his answer to the hoodlums who laughed at him. As a priest he was known as Don Bosco and built churches and schools. </p><p>To find out a little more about him have a look at this short leaflet and feel free to share!</p><p style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/16e2HcUFf8xSMZwo3iGDZpVd8PWqqc5IM/view?usp=sharing" target="_blank">A few things about Don Bosco</a></p><p><br /></p><p><span style="font-family: "Calibri Light", sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; text-indent: -18pt;"></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEiFAgUvT87FGuUzf3lkdwDM6nc1QudOOVfYEMuQzfUmxNXVuN-yxtubMVOdv49dcYJawJA8VSs0fTQugZHuY7aakywxWKR1676q6lrzwwrYchVl2x3Uzjur8JlJtSnW2uarOuPREddzxk90xQ4UDHX_qVCkeBCya22ajcdAssMD0bNPoS2XKvfOHgLPaQ=s611" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="611" data-original-width="430" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEiFAgUvT87FGuUzf3lkdwDM6nc1QudOOVfYEMuQzfUmxNXVuN-yxtubMVOdv49dcYJawJA8VSs0fTQugZHuY7aakywxWKR1676q6lrzwwrYchVl2x3Uzjur8JlJtSnW2uarOuPREddzxk90xQ4UDHX_qVCkeBCya22ajcdAssMD0bNPoS2XKvfOHgLPaQ=s320" width="225" /></a></div><br />“Without
