Lorraine Buckley will work alongside Eilís Casey, Parish Life Coordinator, and will be based at the Mission and Ministry Office located in the Cathedral Presbytery. Both will support the teams of priests and lay leaders across parishes in the Families of Parishes. Lorraine’s particular focus will be on faith development and formation for lay ministry.

Family of Parishes Livestream Mass

12 May 2023

One permanent place to access Livestream Mass

The Family of Parishes website now has a new fixed link to access livestream Mass each weekend.

In the true spirit of sharing resources a countdown to either a Saturday evening Vigil Mass or Sunday Mass is now available on the website.  This will be rotated around a different parish church each weekend.  So for example this weekend the livestream will be the Vigil Mass on Saturday evening at 7:30pm from the Sacred Heart Church, Coutmacsherry.

How to access the livestream

This is a permanent link at onefaith.ie/livestream

When the countdown reaches zero the livestream will begin. If there is no countdown the previous Mass will be available.

Send your content

08 May 2023

There are several places on the Family of Parishes website where content from your Parish would be most welcome

Notices

See onefaith.ie/notices

Any announcements or newsworthy items relevant to all the parishes would be most welcome in this section. So for example any events in Timoleague that are open to all or Barryroe has a new musical setting of the Mass. Any photos of people you send will of course need to have addressed the appropriate permissions.

Stories

See onefaith.ie/stories

This section of the website is new and the idea is to gradually add stories or a historical fact about any of the six parishes. Try to keep each article short and about one particular topic.

Reflect

See onefaith.ie/reflect

This is a place for videos for meditation, contemplation, prayer, worship and recharging the spirit.  Send the link to the video. (e.g. YouTube or Vimeo)
