Welcome to Fr Devitt
We heartily welcome Fr Paddy Devitt this weekend, his first in our parish. Fr Paddy will celebrate Mass at 8.45am and 11.15 am on Sunday. Next weekend will see him celebrate at the other three Mass times. So over the coming weeks we hope he’ll have had a chance to meet you all.
Annual Mass of Thanksgiving 28th Sept
During the past few years, it has been the custom of the Parish of the Assumption to celebrate a Mass of Thanksgiving to God for the large number of people who have offered their services to the life of the Parish and the wider community. Late September was selected for this event because it recalls the date of the Dedication of the Parish church. This year is special for a number of reasons. It is an opportunity to wish Fr John a fond farewell as he leaves the parish. It is also an opportunity to meet with and welcome Fr Paddy Devitt as he joins us from Mater Dei Institute. We are also celebrating the beatification of Cardinal Newman on Sept 19th by Pope Benedict XVI. This year Mass will be celebrated at 7.30 on Tuesday 28 September 2010, followed by a cup of tea afterwards in the Heritage Centre. Everyone is welcome and those who cannot be at the Mass are invited to join us for tea afterwards, which will be served at around 8.15pm. Fr John will be present and we are planning to make a presentation to him, on behalf of the Parish.
