Christmas Gift Mass A big thank you to all who brought gifts for the homeless to last Sunday’s Gift Masses.


Bambinelli Sunday At all Masses next week- end 17th and 18th December For the past several dec- ades, each year on a Sun- day during Advent, chil- dren (and adults) bring their Baby Jesus figures


Hegarty. Next €11,400,


Square where


from the crib at their homes to St. Peter’s the Pope


will bless both the people and the figurines during the Angelus. We are asking families to bring their Baby Jesus fig- ure to any of the Masses next weekend, for a bless- ing and also a blessing for the family. A suggestion is, that


fol-


lowing the blessing, take your “bambinelli” home and place it in a gift box, wrap it, and save it Christmas. Let


this


for be


the first gift your family opens at Christmas, when together you place your Baby Jesus figure in the crib.


Christmas Offerings For security reasons, we would appreciate, if you would consider bringing your “Christmas Offerings to the Priests” envelope to Mass on next week-end


our sinfulness as a com- munity. Several Confes- sors will be available on the night.

Parish Pastoral Coun- cil


Last year a commitment was made to set up a Par- ish Pastoral Council dur- ing the year of Mercy. A steering


Committee was


put in place and began the reflection on what a PPC is and how to set up the Council in the Parish. In October Martin Kennedy visited the Parish and met with the Steering Com- mittee and spoke at all the Masses on the weekend of 1st / 2nd of October and had a Parish meeting on 3rd October. From this 10 people came forward and presented


themselves for the PPC. An initial meet-


day, December 16th, at 8.00pm in Kilbrin Social Club. The night is a cel- ebration of Fr. Michael’s life and ministery. If you have any


special photos Fri-
