Some of the Latest News of Our Parish

The Pope John Paul II Awards: Catholic Youth Care, in association with the Dublin Archdiocesan Office of Evangelisation is delighted to announce a new pastoral programme for young people in the diocese as part of the Year of Evangelisation. The Pope John Paul II Awards will be run by CYC in Dublin. CYC will be supporting parishes, schools and young people in this new Award. This is an exciting new project that has the ability to show young people how to actively live out their faith. All young people between the ages of 16 and 18 years in schools and parishes throughout the Diocese are welcome.

Eucharistic Congress Parish Representatives: Are you interested? We are being asked to nominate one of your parishioners who would be a liaison person for your parish with the Eucharistic Congress Office. Ideally this should be someone who is active in the mainstream of parish life and who would have a capacity to communicate with and motivate his or her fellow parishioners. An initial meeting for these delegates in each of the pastoral areas of the diocese will be held in the coming weeks and we would like as many as possible in attendance.  Please email the details to admin@iec2012.ie or phone 01 808 7577 if you have any queries.
