IN preparation for the Feast of the Nativity of the Lord (Christmas Mass) our parish celebrated Reconciliation on last Wednesday (Dec 14) night. It was an opportunity for prayer, reflection and reconciliation.
I am grateful to Fathers Peter Malone MSC, Paul Castley MSC and Theo Rush OFM for their assistance on the night.
If you were unable to be present then reconciliation is available in the presbytery (I am home most afternoons and evenings) or before any Mass in the Church. Alternatively, Saint Francis Church, Lonsdale Street, has regular reconciliation. Please make an opportunity in preparation for Christmas, especially after the Year of Mercy, announced by Pope Francis.
