Welcome to our parish website where you will find much information about what is happening in our parish and all you need to know about our liturgies, booking baptisms or weddings etc. There is a section on our churches in Birr and Carrig as well as our Garden of Tranquility. Use the menu on the either side of this main section and check back here for regular updates. May the Lord bless you and guide your every step on life’s journey.
The Children’s Liturgy returns on this Sunday, 29 January at the 10.30am Mass and all are welcome to join in the celebration. Volunteers are needed to help the co-ordination of the group, please contact one of the priests if you could help out one Sunday a month - it would be very much appreciated.
Catholic Schools Week begins also on this coming Sunday - it will be marked in each of our parish schools as well as during the week at the 10am Mass in St Brendan’s. More details will be published here shortly. The theme of this year’s celebrations is ‘Catholic Schools: Christ’s living body, active in our world.’
The Octave of Prayer for Christian Unity came to an end on the 25 January, the feast of the Conversion of St Paul. Thanks to all who were involved in our ecumenical service on Sunday last in St Brendan’s. Let us continue to pray for and work towards unity in all our churches.
