Congratulations

To June Noonan on the birth of her grandchild Rory in the UK to her daughter June and her husband Steven McQaune.

 

Defibrillator.

A defibrillator has been kindly and generously donated to the parish by a parishioner to whom we are most thankful. It is located beside the entrance door to Teach an tSolais. It’s a wonderful resource and hopefully it will be never had to be used. Many thanks.

Confirmation preparation has begun and we are reminded to pray for Evie, Holly, Iona, Kundai, Leah ,Rachel and Rumbi from our parish, Adrian from Kilcoleman and Gia, Liya, Devon and Daniel from Tarbert and their parents as they support them at this time.

 

Parishioners in Hospital

Due to privacy rules and GDPR it’s not possible to ask in hospitals anymore for a list of C of I patients. I am happy to visit any parishioner in any of the hospitals and care homes in the wider parish area. The provision of pastoral care to Church of Ireland patients in the hospitals such as UHK and the BONS is part of my role. I work closely with the full-time chaplains, but please let me know if you or a loved one would like a visit or indeed if anyone known to you would like a visit.
