After the renovations in the Church, and the installation of the new tabernacle, Fr Armstrong donated the old one along with vestments, statues and a processional cross. The tabernacle has been delivered to Fr Ignatius in Malawi and is in the process of being installed. The other items have been delivered to Parishes north of Malawi.

Apostolic Work has been working in Ireland since 1923, and in our Parish since it’s foundation, as committed lay people and religious to pray for and support the work of Irish Missionaries (and others) wherever they serve.

The Parish branch would like to thank the parishioners for their ongoing support and generosity.

The Parish webcamera is now online, all Masses from the church will be streamed via the website and can be accessed around the world. 

It is hoped that broadcasts will enable Parishioners who are sick and housebound, and who have access to the internet, to be a part of the daily celebration of the Eucharist. If you have a relative or friend who would like to use live-streaming and may not be familiar with the internet, please help them to access the service via whichever device they can easily learn to use.

We are very grateful to the Order of the Knights of Saint Columbanus for their generous donation towards the cost of this project.

Next Sunday (29th May), Bishop Noel Treanor will preside at the official opening of the church at 12p.m. This is a major event in the history of the Parish as we approach the 50th. Anniversary of the building of the church in 1967. The Parish choirs will join together for this great celebration. All Parishioners and friends are most welcome to attend.

Warmest congratulations and best wishes to the children from the P4 classes of St. Bernard’s P.S. and Cregagh P.S. who made their First Holy Communion on Saturday. A word of thanks to those who helped prepare the church for this great Parish celebration: the members of the Cleaning Teams who gave up some of their time last Sunday to clean the church, the members of the P.T.A., parents, and friends who provided the food and refreshments for the children and their families in the Parish Centre.

The ceremony was streamed live on the Parish Website and is available to view again below.

Mass times have returned to their normal schedule after the Easter period. Details can be found on here or on the Mass Time page on the left hand column.
