Third Sunday of Ordinary Time
Gerry Boyle PP   046 9054138

Words spoken at Aisling Murphy’s funeral have special relevance this weekend, as we mark Christian Unity Week, begin Catholic Schools week and celebrate Sunday of the Word of God.

Fr Michael Meade said ‘ Together we grieve, we pray, we hurt - this is the heavy price we pay for love - we gather as a family of faith.’

Bishop Deenihan said ' Respect is an old-fashioned word but it is an important one. Respect was missing last Wednesday but it has re-emerged here all the stronger. Let us respect one another.'
