Bring Back Raidió na Gaeltachta Masses Extract from Seanad Éireann 9th Feb, 2010. Senator Rónán Mullen: Tá an-bhrón orm go bhfuil cosc ar chraoladh an aifreann ach uair amháin sa mhí ar Raidió na Gaeltachta. It is disappointing Raidió na Gaeltachta has taken the decision to reduce the broadcasting of masses to one per month. It will affect fishermen, people in nursing homes and the sick at home and I sincerely hope that it can be reversed. Financial reasons are being given, but the broadcasting of a mass on radio is not a Broadway production. Senators: Hear, hear. Senator Rónán Mullen: It can be done. It is not a luxury, but a necessity for many. Tá súil agam go ndéanfaí athbhreithniú ar an cheist seo agus go ndéanfaidh Raidió na Gaeltachta cinneadh eile ar leas na ndaoine ar fad. [A few minutes later, Senator Donie Cassidy replied as follows…] Senator Mullen abhors the fact that Raidió na Gaeltachta is to stop broadcasting Sunday Mass. With this change, we have hit a new low in broadcasting in Ireland. This is shameful and appalling. As we were all taught at school, the most important hour of the week is the hour spent in church on a Sunday. Considering that the station broadcasts for 167 hours, it has hit a really low pitch in deciding that it will not broadcast Sunday Mass. This will impact on those who are not able to move from their homes and for whom Sunday Mass is part and parcel of their lives. It is probably the most important hour in their week’s activities. Please write, text, phone and lobby the relevant authorities, remember the sean-fhocal, “Ní luach go hAifreann d’éisteacht” “More precious than anything is hearing Mass”. Trócaire and Dues Envelopes Trócaire Boxes will be distributed to each house in the Parish together with the Spring and Easter Dues Envelopes in the next 2 weeks. Buíochas to the Teagmhálaí who distribute them on behalf of the Parish. Buíochas ó chroí for your great generosity towards our Haiti and Crib appeals. Castlegregory G.A.A. Abú Guímid gach rath ar Chumainn Spa agus Castlegregory ag taisteal chuig Páirc an Chrócaigh le haghaidh Craobh na hÉireann. We salute All-Ireland Junior medal winner Tadgh Flynn who is resident in St. Elizabeth’s Hospital, Dingle by following his winning footsteps agus beir an Craobh. A Thiarna, ofrálaim an cluiche seo duit. Ofrálaim m’imirt duit mar urnaí agus déanfad mo dhícheall. Is tábhacht m’iompar ar an bpáirc inniu Ná fuinneamh mo ghéag sa chluiche. Má dheinim go maith cabhraigh liom éirí in airde a sheachaint, mioscais má bhuaitear orainn agus fearg, formad agus fíoch. Ach, a Thiarna, táim ag tnúth leis an mbua. Tabhair cúnamh dom, más ea, mo dhícheall a dhéanamh Agus gur leor sin chun an chraobh a bhreith.
