FOURTEENTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME

Sunday 8th JULY 2007



THANKS to the musicians and singers who are voluntarily giving their time and talent to serve the liturgy during the summer. We are very grateful.

THE POPE’S INTENTIONS FOR JULY are that all citizens can build up the common good.

NATIONAL ROSARY CRUSADE – it is the hope of the organisers that every parish throughout Ireland will assemble on the 13th of each month from May to September (Apparition dates of Our Lady of Fatima in 1917) to recite the Rosary. The conclusion of these Rosaries will take place at the Hill of Slane on 13th October. The third of these will take place on Friday in Long Tower at 7:15pm followed by Mass. All welcome.

PLEASE PRAY for all the couples getting married this year. They are in preparation for a God-given vocation and need God’s help to prepare well and sustain the commitment they are making. Congratulations to those who have already celebrated the sacrament. P.S. They say a man is not complete until he’s married. And then he’s finished!

GOING ON HOLIDAY? Make sure God goes with you. The obligation for Sunday Mass still applies.

We Gratefully Acknowledge The Anonymous Donations To The General Renovation Fund: £10, £5, £5, £10, £10, £5, £20, £50, £50.
