Do you know anyone who may be interested in becoming a Catholic? Would you consider inviting someone to join the Catholic faith? Do we not give best witness to our faith when we share that faith with others? Perhaps you have been baptised into the Catholic faith and have not had an opportunity to receive the other Sacraments? The Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (RCIA) is a process whereby our parish invites and welcomes new members into our faith community. The community will journey with and support you as together we will explore the treasure that is our Catholic faith. In welcoming others we come to a deeper appreciation of what it really means to be church. For more information please contact Mary at 9028473 or email cbarpres@eircom.net ************************************************** Eucharistic Ministers We are currently renewing the Eucharistic Ministers rota. Please collect your letters in the Sacristy if you haven't already done so. ************************************************* Knock Shrine 39th annual Novena to Our Lady of Knock starts Sun 14th Aug, the Novena offers 9 days of reflection, discussion and prayer.
