Christmas Message

I would like to wish all in our Parish Community a Holy & Happy Christmas. In the restricted days of this year past because of the virus much stress and anxiety has come our way. Sharing in Mass through the webcam has been second best, but it was still a useful spiritual gift. I would like to thank Fr. Frank McLaughlin who has been a great help to me in offering Masses. Please God in 2021 we will be renewed in our faith and care for each other. Fr. Aidan Mullan
