Springtime Prayer
-
For flowers
that bloom about our feet,
For tender
grass, so fresh, so sweet,
For song
of bird, and hum of bee,
For all
things fair we hear or see,
Father
in heaven, we thank Thee!
-
For blue
of stream and blue of sky,
For pleasant
shade of branches high,
For fragrant
air and cooling breeze,
For beauty
of the blooming trees,
Father
in heaven, we thank Thee!

DTIM Parents Comments
“The
DTIM programme has been great in helping me prepare my son for First Holy Communion.
Andrew looks forward to Mass each week, especially the DTIM Mass as all the Yr4
children are so involved that it make them feel special. I could not even have begun
to prepare Andrew for his First Holy Communion without the amazing work that Margaret,
Mary and Nuala do through the pastoral programme. Andrew looks forward
to his class every week and enjoys the activities
from his books and learning his prayers at home. Many thanks to everyone involved
in making the preparation for the sacrament of First Communion so special for Andrew
and all the Yr4 children.” Joanne Eannetta, Cappagh Pastoral Programme

Fasting is a tradition which we preserve now on Ash Wednesday and Good Friday.

that you might consider abstinence from meat on Fridays in Lent as a Lenten practice
and a sign of Christian concern for our fragile and endangered world.
