The Presentation of the Lord
Catholic Schools: Called to be a Family of Families Dublin has been chosen by Pope Francis to host the World Meeting of Families 2018. From 21–26 August 2018, families and others from all over the world will gather to celebrate their lives together, to share their experiences from different parts of the world, to reflect on the different challenges they face and to grow together in faith. This event presents a special opportunity for school families to celebrate not only the fact that parents are the primary educators of their children, but also the vital role that Catholic schools play in assisting par-ents. In partnership with World Meeting of Families 2018, the Catholic Schools Week Steering Com-mittee has developed a one-year catechetical programme for Catholic primary and post-primary schools. The theme for this programme is Catholic Schools: Called to be a Family of Families. The pro-gramme invites Catholic schools to reflect on and celebrate the relationship that exists between home, school and parish through participation in four sub-themed catechetical moments. Moment One: Families of Hope – November 2017 Moment Two: Families of Faith – January 2018 (Catholic Schools Week 2018) Moment Three: Families of Love – Lent 2018 Moment Four: Families of Joy – April/May 2018 Catholic Schools Week 2018 will run in the same format as previous years but there is one important distinction. In 2018, Catholic Schools Week will be the high point of the primary and post-primary school catechetical programme. The theme for Catholic Schools Week 2018 is Catholic Schools: Fami-lies of Faith.

On 26th January 2014, Bishop Kieran O’Reilly celebrated Mass to launch the 5 year fund raising drive to com-plete the Restoration of St Mary Of the Rosary Church. To Date extensive work has been done on St Mary’s as follows;
Damp proofing and sealing of roof areas, Repairs to belfry Tarmac laid in grounds New lighting in grounds Complete replacement of all electrical wiring and
systems, Complete interior painting, Overhaul of heating, Draught proofing at entrance door on church road
side Work currently in progress;

Ramp at Church Road entrance Car parking controls.
To fund all of these works we set out to raise €760,000 and we are delighted to report that currently we have raised €716,000. As we now start the final year of the 5 year draw we have just another €34,000 to go.
We are deeply indebted to all the people who have sup-ported the 5-year draw to date. The final year contribution of €100 is now due and we would ask everyone to please pay any outstanding mon-ies to either your promoter or directly to the Parish Of-fice. There are just 4 draws left; End March, End June, End September and End December, For all fully paid up members who have contributed €500 over the 5 years there is a final bonus prize of €5,000 in December. We are on target to complete the work in time for the 125 Centenary of St Mary’s in 2021. This has only been possible by the generosity of so many of our parishion-ers and friends. Thank you.
