Lent 2022 - beginning on Ash Wednesday, March 2^nd.

For the past two years (2020 & 2021) the celebration of Lent was badly impacted by prolonged periods of lockdown as a result of the pandemic.

As we prepare for Lent 2022, beginning on Ash Wednesday, March 2^nd - we are giving advance notice of a change to the Weekday (Monday to Friday) Mass Schedule for Lent at St. Patrick’s, Ballybay.

The change is to take account of the reduced number of priests, resulting in priests having to assume responsibility for ministry across neighbouring parishes.

The Lenten Weekday Mass Schedule for Lent in St. Patrick’s, Ballybay will be as follows:

·         Mondays - Evening Mass at 7.30pm (preceded by Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament from 5.30pm). Please note No morning Masses on Mondays.

Mass Times for Ash Wednesday across neighbouring parishes will be announced in due course.
