Prayers of the faithful
The Lord is close to all who call upon him so let us now place
our needs before him in prayer.
For the Church throughout the world - that she may provide
hope and nourishment for all in imitation of the Lord’s own
kindness….Lord, hear us.
For those who have been given power and authority that they
may truly serve those in their care, especially those most in
need….Lord, hear us.
For aid agencies and all who are working on behalf of the poor
and disadvantaged that their efforts may be encouraged and
supported...Lord, hear us.
For ourselves that we may deal generously with one another,
especially those we live with, in gentleness and patience...Lord,
hear us.
For grandparents and the elderly that their love and self-
sacrifice on behalf of their families may be rewarded by the Lord
who is never outdone in generosity...Lord, hear us.
Heavenly Father, you teach us to ask, to seek and to knock at
your door. Hear the prayers we make today and grant us what
we truly need. Through Christ our Lord. Amen.

Charitable Donations Scheme (2023 Claim currently being
processed).
This scheme is an invaluable additional source of income for the
parish (€26,195.47 received in 2022 claim) and we thank
everyone most sincerely for contributing and also signing up for
the scheme. You may fall into 1 of the categories below:
Certs on file: If you have returned a CHY3 cert to us in the last
5 years and if you have contributed €250 or more in ‘23, we
have already included you in our 1st 2023 claim. You do not
need to do anything.
¨ If your CHY3 cert has expired or if this is your 1st time
meeting the €250 target, you will have received a CHY3 form in
the post. We urge you to sign and return the form in the weekly
offertory collection at mass or parish office letter-box.
¨ Alternatively, if you no longer pay tax to Revenue or if you do
not wish to participate, please let us know so that we can
remove you from our list, thus reducing the administration and
postage costs year on year.
If you have any questions, please contact Gail at the
parish office - 87221.
