Thought for the day: The question raised in today’s Gospel is never out of date or out of season. It is perfectly natural to think of our neighbours as literally the people nex tdoor, people “like us” as we say. But, that is to stay well within our comfort zone and, as Jesus puts it sharply elsewhere, “even the Gentiles love those who love them.” Far more is demanded, especially in today’s context of spiralling migration, with all its challenges of finance, housing, income, education of the young, work for the able and so forth. While bearing in mind the practical and social consequences, the whole thrust of the Gospel passage is to see my neighbour as any fellow human being in need. Prayer: Generous God, as we rejoice in your kindness towards us, help us to imitate your love for all without distinction.
(Fr Kieran O’Mahony OSA)
Pope Leo XIV on X: The Lord wishes to do something great in our lives and in the history of humanity, yet there are few who perceive this, pause to receive the gift and then proclaim and share it with others.
Naoi gCéad Míle Fáilte: A heartfelt welcome to all who are visiting the area or at home on holidays at this time. We hope you enjoy your break!

Stay with me, Lord – Prayer of St Pio of Pietrelcina after Holy Communion
Stay with me, Lord, for it is necessary to have you present so that I do not forget You.
You know how easily I abandon You.
Stay with me, Lord, because I am weak
and I need Your strength,
that I may not fall so often.
Stay with me, Lord, for You are my life,
and without You, I am without fervor.
Stay with me, Lord, for You are my light,
and without You, I am in darkness.
Stay with me, Lord, to show me Your will.
Stay with me, Lord, so that I hear Your voice and follow You.
Stay with me, Lord, for I desire to love You
very much, and always be in Your company.
Stay with me, Lord, if You wish me to be faithful to You.
Stay with me, Lord, for as poor as my soul is, I want it to be a place of consolation for You, a nest of love.
