Easter Sunday

 

We rejoice and are glad

 

"Now we are those witnesses." People today are very reluctant to get involved with things in the community and in society, especially on a voluntary basis. And yet our following of Christ is all about getting involved and not counting the cost. We have just come through the journey that Christ travelled in his passion and death, the price of our salvation. Our responsibility is to bring the fruits of that to our world by bringing joy, peace, healing, gladness, freedom, justice and so on, beginning with those with whom we live and spreading out to those with whom we worship, and beyond. Every aspect of human living needs this more now than ever as we witness a breakdown of marriage and family life; growing violence in society; increasing isolation of people in every community. Now is the time to live our Christian faith.

Fr. Johnny Doherty, C.Ss.R.

LOST – CAN YOU HELP??


Two Walking sticks on Sunday 29th March at the car park area in Banagher Glen.
The 6ft wooden sticks were specially adapted by Robert to suit himself. They will be hard to replace as these particular sticks are not sold in any outdoor equipment shop. These sticks added greatly to the pleasure and enjoyment Robert gets from walking and the comfort when resting on the walks!! He would be delighted to find them. Any information please phone Patricia on 07763815935
