Happy Christmas, Parishioners All

You will see a new 'button', Mass Live, on the menu bar at the top of the page, after 'Mass Times'.  Yes, we are making a big breakthrough at this happy time of Christmas by being able to transmit Mass and other services live from St Mary's. This will be of great benefit to those whose circumstances don't allow them attend in person -- especially those who are in nursing homes or otherwise house-bound. From now on, our congregation will be not only those in the church but those in other places near and far -- even overseas, who knows. Welcome to you all and may peace and hope flow from our church here to be with you there wherever you are.

'Church Services TV' have provided us with this 'streaming' facility. Read more about them and the other churches they cater for (in Ireland and England) here.

They have provided it, but who, you may ask, has paid for it? Lisheen Nursing Home, Rathcoole,  We thank them for their generosity in sponsoring such a very beneficial service.
