Mass will not take place on Friday January 24th because of the red wind warning. The Church will not open until it is safe to do so. We ask that you stay at home until the warning has passed.

When we are given a weather warning we ask our parishioners to consider their route to Church. With wind warnings St Patrick’s Church will receive the brunt of the high strong winds as it is on a hill. These winds can be very strong and we ask that you make your decisions based on the severity of the winds before travelling. On a snow or ice warning please take into consideration the hill you have to walk/drive to the Church before you leave. Although the authorities do grit the hill this is not a priority road and it may still be very slippy. The road to Gaggin Church can be treacherous with ice during snow and ice warnings. We ask all our parishioners to consider the alternative. If it is not safe to go please watch Mass on our webcam.

To contact the Parish Office and arrange a Mass, to arrange a baptism or other official request please ring 023 8841666 during office hours. 9.30am-11.30am Mon-Fri.

To speak with the priest on duty please ring 087 6472406 – this number is not for office use.

Ministry, including prayers and support, for bereaved families in parishes at the time of a funeral is to be provided by members of a parish team rather than just the clergy alone.

This is the main emphasis of a new guidance for funerals which is published by the Diocese of Cork and Ross.

The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is the toughest privacy and security law in the world. Though it was drafted and passed by the European Union (EU), it imposes obligations onto organisations anywhere, so long as they target or collect data related to people in the EU. The regulation was put into effect on May 25, 2018. The GDPR will levy harsh fines against those who violate its privacy and security standards, with penalties reaching into the tens of millions of euros.

St Patrick’s Church is equipped with a web camera to Livestream our Masses and other ceremonies. We use the services of Church Services Tv to livestream and connect with our parishioners at home and abroad. As our camera is connected to WIFI and livestreams our Masses on the internet we updated our GDPR policy
