LENTEN OFFERINGS FOR THE PRIESTS
The Lenten Offerings for the priests are taken up during Lent. We thank all who have contributed so far during the Station Masses or at Sunday Masses. The priest does not get the ordinary Sunday collections, they are for the upkeep of the church and the running of the parish.
In recent times people are becoming more accustomed to using online Banking. There are two separate currents accounts in the Parish, one for the parish and various collections like Emigrants, Trocaire etc. The other current account is for the support of the two priests in the parish. The priests are usually supported in Offerings at Lent, Easter, Autumn and Christmas. Some donations are handed in with the November Mass Offerings. For those who might like to consider doing online banking the following are the numbers:
