News and Announcements from the Family of Parishes
With the annual Diocesan Priests’ Retreat for Cork & Ross next week, there will be no morning masses in the parishes of Ballyphehane, The Lough and Togher from Monday 9th – Thursday 12th October.
Morning mass resumes on Friday 13th October in each church.
Daily mass will still be celebrated by the Religious Orders.
Thank you.
The last Diocesan Needs Quarterly Collection in July amounted to €49,098 throughout the Diocese, which is much appreciated.
The next quarterly collection will take place on weekend of 7th/8th October
This quarterly collection allows the Diocese to provide ongoing supports to parishes in many areas. It contributes to the day-to-day running costs of the Diocese including the cost of personnel, utilities (light & heat, phone, postage & stationery, repairs & maintenance, insurance), professional fees, primary and secondary school religious advisory costs, safeguarding, data protection, mission and ministry and levies paid by the Diocese for national hierarchy costs in Maynooth.
People continue to be very generous to these quarterly collections over the years and your support would be greatly appreciated this weekend.
