The Altars to St. Peter and St. Paul have been set up as prayer spaces for Church Unity Week. Prayer will be recited daily at each altar for Unity with the Churches of the East and West.
Hospitality is a much needed virtue in our search for Christian unity. It calls us to a greater generosity to those in need. The people who showed unusual kindness to Paul and his companions did not yet know Christ. Our own Christian unity will be discovered not only through showing hospitality to one another, but also through loving encounters with those who do not share our language, culture or faith.
This is the text of Terry Kellaher's reflection for Nollaig na mBan 2020
The Nollaig na mBan event "A drink before you go" has raised €200 for the woman of Dochas centre. On behalf of all who contributed, Thank You!
The cat saga moves foward. "Kitty" has now been placed with a reputable animal shelter and there are indications that she has been tagged. As soon as the chip has been scanned, (Monday, I imagine) we expect that she will be reunited with her owner. More news as we recieve it.
A small kitten with gray markings and red collar has taken sanctuary in St. Peter's. She has been contained but will need to be picked up soon as we have no facilities to care for her. Call 01 8389708 and dial extension 401 today, 4th Jan, if possible.
