ABSTINENCE FOR NOVEMBER

The Pioneer Association has launched it’s Short-Term Pledge campaign for

November in honour of the Holy Souls. The theme of this year’s campaign is:

‘Remember in November’.

and friends who have gone before us or for someone you know and love with an addiction.

www.pioneerassociation.ie or contact 018749464.

REASONS TO ATTEND ADORATION

1. Eucharistic Adoration is greatly needed. “The church and the world

have great need for Eucharistic Adoration”.

2. This is a personal invitation from Jesus to you. “Jesus waits for us in this

sacrament of love”.

3. Jesus is counting on you. “Every member of the church must be vigilant in seeing

that this Sacrament shall be given back ‘love for love’ ”.

4. Because your hour with Jesus will repair for the evils of the world and bring

about peace on earth, the Church says “Let us be generous with our time in going to meet

Him … may our adoration never cease”.

More Eucharistic Adoration members are urgently needed - please contact: 0873100049

FIRST COMMUNION PARENTS’ COMMITTEE Meeting next Friday (November 15th) in Parochial House at 8pm.

POPE FRANCIS SPEAKS “The world needs to discover that God is the Father, that there is mercy,

that cruelty is not the way, that condemnation is not the way, because it

is the Church herself who at times takes a hard line, and falls into the

temptation to follow a hard line and to underline moral rules only;

many people are excluded…….I believe that this is the time for mercy.”

HOLY GOD WE PRAISE THY NAME

Holy God we praise thy name

Lord of all we bow before thee

All on earth thy sceptre own

All in heaven above adore thee,

Endless is thy vast domain

Everlasting is thy reign.

Hark, with loud and pealing hymn,

Tee the angel choirs are praising;

Cherubim and seraphim,

One unceasing chorus raising,

Ever sing with sweet accord,

Holy, holy, holy Lord.
