Parish Activities

HARBOUR ST ENTRANCE TO CHURCH GROUNDS:

A new barrier has been installed at this entrance.  The barrier will be open each day, Monday-Friday, from 7.30-11.30am.  It will also be open for all funerals, weddings and other liturgies and all day Saturday and Sunday.  We regret that it has become necessary to erect a barrier due to abuse of the facility by those who are not coming to the Church to pray.

We remind all that our Parish Car Park, which is accessible from St Brigid's Place, provides easy access to the Church.  It is free to Church users for weddings and funerals, and means that morning Mass goers have suitable parking close to the Church. 
A charge of €2 which comes into effect from 11.30am onwards allows all day parking. 

BANK HOLIDAY:
Monday is a Bank Holiday and there will be one Mass only at 11.00am.
