The support of parishes in letting people know was invaluable to the success of this Series last year so your support will be much appreciated again this year.

Welcome to the Ballyphehane, the Lough and the Togher Parish website! 

Dear Parishioners, 

Welcome to our new Website which details the union of our family of parishes, Ballyphehane, The Lough and Togher. In creating this family we have also created a bond between our three churches in order to sustain their pastoral life. 

Practically this means parishioners, lay people, clergy and religious communities sharing resources, responsibilities, and ministry, strengthening our unity as one Body of Christ. 

Please email us any suggestions you have as we would be delighted to hear from you.
