WORLD MEETING OF FAMILIES 2018

Sunday next 19th August: Mass at Carga Rock at 9.30a.m. – replacing the regular Sunday Mass in Tullycorbet. Walking some part of the way to this gathering at the Mass Rock will link us with our ancestors in the faith who journeyed on foot in difficult times and who preserved and handed on the gift of the Eucharist to us.

Tuesday 21st August: the day that marks the official opening of the World Meeting of Families. Bells of every church across Ireland will ring out at 7p.m. that evening to mark the event, calling people to prayer. The special Liturgy, marking the opening of the WMOF will be held in St. Patrick’s at 7.30p.m. on Tuesday evening 21st August. Everybody is encouraged to make a special effort to be part of this gathering.

Wednesday 22nd, Thursday, 23rd and Friday 24th August - early morning Mass in St. Patrick’s (just like in Lent!) at 7.15a.m. - linking us in prayer with this momentous occasion. St. Patrick’s will also have Mass on those mornings at 9.30a.m.
