As you may know, I announced at the weekend at the Masses that I will be leaving the parish.

I want to thank all of you for your kindness and support to me during my time at Holy Family. It was such a blessing to be there for the year.
I ask you to keep me in your prayers and please know that I will keep all of you and your families in mine.
Thank you for everything.

Our Lady of Knock, pray for us.
Jesus, I trust in you.

There will be no confessions tomorrow morning in the Church due to the First Communion Mass

23/04/2022

This weekend we have the opportunity to receive the extraordinary grace of Divine Mercy Sunday, a promise given to us by Jesus through St. Faustina.

The conditions are these:

1. A soul must go to confession
2. A soul will then receive Holy Communion in a state of grace at the Saturday vigil Mass or the Sunday Mass
3. A soul should venerate the Image of the Divine Mercy and pledge to trust Jesus more, living the signature at the bottom of the image, "Jesus I Trust in You"

I would like to pray many blessings on the boys and girls from Holy Family Primary School who will be confirmed by Bishop Mc Keown tomorrow.

*****Due to the two ceremonies that will take place in Holy Family Church tomorrow, we will not have confessions or adoration. Apologies for the inconvenience this may cause.****

Today, we will have Eucharistic Adoration from 10 am until 4.30pm.
This week I forgot to leave the sheet for people to sign up for hours, but if you would like to take a slot for adoration today, I will leave the sheet in the Church and we can try to ensure that the hours are covered. Thanks everyone, and sorry for the late message about signing up.
