Bliain an Chreidimh – Our Patron Saints
Laochra an Chreidimh No.27.
Naomh Patrick. The reason I picked the name Patrick for my Confirmation is that I have twin cousins. One is called John and the other is called Patrick. That inspired me to take the name Patrick for my Confirmation. My name is Steven John on my birth certificate and I think Patrick then would be nice to complete my name on my Confirmation day.
Saint Patrick is honoured in the Roman Catholic Church. His feast day is on the 17th of March (Saint Patrick’s Day). At the age of 16 he was captured from his home by irish raiders and taken as a slave to Ireland where he lived for six years. After escaping and going back to his family he became a cleric. He returned to Ireland as an ordained Bishop in the North and West of the Island. By the seventh century he had come to be revered as the Patron Saint of Ireland.
Saint Patrick’s Day is observed on March 17th, the date of his death. It is celebrated both inside and outside of Ireland. It is both a solemnity and a holy day of obligation in the Diocese of Ireland.

Mothers’ Day – 10ú Márta 2013
Ceiliúrtar Lá na Máthar ar an Domhnach seo. Thosnaigh an nós seo thall í Sasana 400 bhliain ó shoin. San chéad áit, thug gach éinne chuairt ar an Séipéal san bparóiste inar saolaíodh baisteadh a mháthair. Tar éis an turas seo chuaigh siad le bronntanas go dtí an tigh ina raibh an máthair ina cónaí.
Beannacht & Machnamh
Blessed are you, Lord our God, giver of life:
give your strength and wisdom, your compassion and understanding to the mother of this family.
Blessed are you, Son of God, eternal wisdom:
give your knowledge and truth to the children of this family.
Blessed are you, Holy Trinity, eternal and almighty:
shadow with your protecting wings the absent/departed members of this family.
Let us pray:
Father, we want to live as Jesus, Mary and Joseph,
in peace with you and with one another.
By following their example in mutual love and respect may we come to the joy of our home in heaven through Christ our Lord. AMEN

Staonadh ó Dheoch Mheisciúil agus ó Dhrugaí
Seasann na leanaí agus labhraíonn an sagart leo:
A Dhaoine óga,
Seasann sibh anseo i measc bhur gclann agus phobal an pharóiste. Seo iad na daoine a thug an creideamh díbh. Leanfaidh siad ag tacú libh agus sibh ag fás.
An gealltanas seo atá á thabhairt agaibh is gealltanas speisialta é idir sibh agus Dia na Glóire. Tugann sé fianaise dúinne atá bailithe anseo. Beidh cúnamh agus treoir bhur dtuismitheoirí ag teastáil uaibh chun an gealltanas seo a chomhlíonadh.
Mar sin iarraim oraibh: Ar labhair tú le do thuismitheoirí / chaomhnóirí faoin dainséar a bhaineann le deoch mheisciúil agus drugaí? Leanbh: Labhair.
Sagart: Ar gheall siad cúnamh agus tacaíocht a thabhairt duit chun an gealltanas a choimeád?: Leanaí: Gheall
Sagart: Iarraim ort anois an gealltanas chun staonadh ó deoch mheisciúil agus ó dhrugaí a thabhairt.
Leanaí: Geallaimse (Ainm), go staonfaidh mé ó dheoch mheisciúil go dtí go mbeidh mé ocht mbliana déag d’aois agus ó dhrugaí ar feadh mo shaoil. Iarraim ar an Spiorad Naomh, ar mo chlann agus mo chairde cabhrú liom an gealltanas seo a choimeád.
Sagart: Gurab Críost bhur neart agus sibh ag iarraidh an gealltanas seo a choimeád. Iarraimid é seo trí Chríost ár dTiarna. Pobal: Amen.
Suíonn na leanaí agus seasann an pobal
Sagart: A thuismitheoirí agus a phobal an pharóiste bailithe anseo inniu an ngeallann sibh tacaíocht agus cúnamh a thabhairt do na leanaí seo chun an geallantas seo a choimeád? Pobal: Geallaimid
Sagart: Go neartaí Dia sibh. Go gcabhraí Sé libh dea-shampla a thabhairt do na leanaí seo. Go bhfoghlamaí sibh óna bhfianaise anseo inniu. Iarraimid é seo trí Críost ár dTiarna. Pobal: Amen.
Confirmation Pledge
The children stand and the priest addresses them as follows:
My Dear Young People,
You stand here among your families and parish community. These are the people who have passed on the faith to you. They will continue to support you as you become adults. The pledge that you have chosen to make is a special promise between you and God. It also gives witness to us who have gathered here. You will need help and guidance from your parents in this undertaking. And so I ask you:
Have you discussed the dangers of the abuse of alcohol and drugs with your parents? Children Respond: I have.
Priest: Have they promised to help and support you in keeping your pledge? They have.
Priest: I now invite you to take the pledge of abstinence from alcoholic drink and drugs.
Children: I (Name), promise to abstain from alcoholic drink until I am 18 years of age and from drugs for life. I ask the Holy Spirit and my family and friends to help me keep this promise.
Priest: May the Lord be your strength as you try to be faithful to the promise you have just made. We ask this through Christ our Lord. All: Amen.
The children sit and the community stand.
The Priest says: Do you the parents and the community gathered here today promise to help these children to keep their pledge? Community Response: We do
Priest: May God strengthen you. May he help you to give good example to these children. May you learn and benefit from their witness this day. We ask this … All: Amen. Service of Light: March 14th 7.30pm for all Confirmation candidates, their parents / guardians, sponsors and godparents if possible.
