PARISH MISSION – “GROWING IN FAITH TOGETHER:”

Clonleigh Parish Mission 2022

Parish Mission

Beginning on the Evening of Sunday 2 October to the Evening of Wednesday 5 October 2022
(Introduction to the Mission will be at our Vigil Mass on 1 October and morning Masses on 2 October)

THEME OF MISSION: ‘OUR PARISH, GROWING IN FAITH TOGETHER’

I am delighted to inform you that our Parish Mission will commence on the evening of Sunday 2 October, having been ‘launched’ at our Vigil Mass on Saturday 1 October, and at our Sunday morning Masses on 2 October. The Mission will finish on the evening of Wednesday 5 October.

In choosing suitable dates for our Parish Mission, it was considered particularly relevant to have it in the Month of Mission, the month in which all of us are asked to refresh ourselves on the mission to which we are called as baptised Catholics, and to look at ways in which we can live out our mission responsibility in our own parish. It was also considered appropriate to incorporate the Feast of St Therese of Lisieux (1 Oct), Patroness of Missions, and the Feast of St Francis of Assisi (4 Oct), who reformed his life and surrendered it to the providence and will of God. October, as you know, is also a special month of devotion to Our Lady and, in particular, to the Rosary.

Facilitators: Fr Eamonn Fitzgibbon and Sr Therese Fitzgerald

To ensure the Blessed Sacrament is attended at all times during the periods of Adoration, there is a page available at the back of the church, on which you are asked to put your initials against a day and time that suits you (more than one person/family can initial any individual time).

There will be a special liturgy in the church for our three schools on the Tuesday of the Mission at 11.30am. Parents, grandparents, family members and the wider parish family are very welcome to attend.
