Holy Thursday night: Proposal to invite people to remain on after
Holy Thursday night Mass until 12 midnight as a launching of our own
preparation for World
Meeting
of Families.
Masses Over the last 30 months we have
had 34 funerals and this leaves us with a lot of M.M.M., First, Second and
subsequent anniversaries. If we are to accommodate the most recently bereaved
with a weekend mass, if that is their wish could we agree that after seven
years we could vacate our annual mass to another? Obliviously in the case of a
tragic death seven years may not be sufficient grieving time.
This extract was taken
from 27th February 2016.
Now 2 years later we
have arrived at a figure of 67 funerals. So we will hope that some families
will vacate their weekend mass to facilitate those who have been recently
bereaved. During the course of the year Drumavaddy has
168 evening masses and Crosskeys has 52 Sunday masses,
52 evening masses and 104 weekday masses at 9:30am.
Recent death: Please remember in your prayers Patsy Donohoe, Ryefort, whose funeral
took place last weekend. May he rest in peace.
