Easter Message from Father Brendan
Firstly a very Happy Easter to you all. On this centenary of 1916 we share the
spiritual aspirations of the signatories on that day who began with:
"Irishmen and Irishwoman: In the name of God and of the dead
generations.." and concluded with: "We place the cause of the Irish Republic
under the protection of the Most High God, Whose blessing we invoke...."
May Easter revive and refresh our commitment to our country and our faith
and may we be prepared to make the sacrifices necessary to carry our
country into its second century.
As always thanks for all the help, work and support here in our parish,
particularly during the Easter ceremonies and in the preparing of the church
for this weekend and in a personal capacity for all the prayers and Masses
you've sent my families direction in the past few weeks, we are very grateful.
May the Easter message of hope and new life - help all who are in mourning
as our proclamation said - "for the dead generations". May they all rest in
peace and rise with Jesus into Glory.
