Envelopes: €1,057; Cash: €647. Total: €1,704. Míle buíochas. Diocesan Collection for Lourdes Helpers will be taken up this weekend February 7th/8th as a second collection after Communion.
The success of the annual Kerry Diocesan Pilgrimage to Lourdes depends on Volunteer Carers and Nursing Staff who provide full time assistance to 50 or so assisted Pilgrims each year. The Carers are responsible for the physical, emotional and social needs of the assisted pilgrims for the entire week and are on duty from 6am ‘til 11pm daily. The collection next weekend will help reduce the cost of the Volunteer Carers who give generously of their time to ensure the success of the annual Pilgrimage. Thanking you in advance”.

Laochra an Chreidimh II – Patrons
Naomh Pádraig
Is é Naomh Pádraig naomh patrún na hÉireann. Nuair a bhí sé 16 bliana d’aois ghabh foghlaithe Éireannacha é agus thóg siad go hÉirinn é mar sclábhaí, áit ar chónaigh sé ar feadh sé bliana. Ar deireadh, chuala sé guth ag rá leis go n-éalódh sé abhaile. D’éalaigh sé agus d’fhill sé abhaile ar bord loinge. Cúpla bliain ina dhiaidh sin, ceapadh é ina easpag. D’fhill sé ar Éirinn agus bhí sé ina easpag anseo.
Ceiliúraimid Lá le Pádraig in Éirinn agus ar fud an domhain ar an 17ú Márta gach bliain, an dáta a fuair sé bás. Bhí sé 120 bliain agus tá sé curtha i nDún Pádraig, Co. an Dúin. Fad is a bhí Naomh Pádraig ina aoire, ghuigh sé chun Dé de ló is d’oíche.
Roghnaigh mé an t-ainm Pádraig mar taithníonn scéal a shaoil liom agus taithníonn an obair a dhein sé liom. Chomh maith le sin, Pádraig an t-ainm atá ar mo Dhaid agus ar ghaolta liom.
