Dear Parishioner and Gentle Reader,
I wish to thank many people for their good wishes, kind
messages and welcome prayers. Thank God everything is fine; the surgery on Tuesday
went well and apart from a little pain,
I am doing well. During these days of convalescing, I
welcome the opportunity to reflect on so many blessings and I ask God to keep all
our parishioners in his loving care.
With kind regards, Fr Colum
Grant them Eternal Rest, O Lord
