KILQUADE PARISH NEWSLETTER Sunday 9Th December 2018 KILQUADE PARISH NEWSLETTER Sunday 9th December 2018 St. Patrick’s St. Joseph’s St. Anthony’s Carmelite Church Holy Spirit Oratory Kilquade Newtown Kilcoole Delgany Newcastle "Prepare the way of the Lord, make straight his paths." John's call to repentance and the forgiveness of sins happened in a particular time and place. But that does not mean it is limited to first century Palestine! God continues to move in our daily lives. What we hear in today's Gospel - and what we anticipate at Christmas - occurs in our daily lives. God works in concrete ways in time and space. He did that 2,000 years ago, and He contin- ues to do so today! This Sunday, examine your own Christmas prepa- rations. Is there anything you need to repent of be- fore the Christmas season? Are there low points in your life, valleys to "be filled" by the love of God? Are their mountainous obstacles in your spiritual life? How can they be "made low"? Are you making decisions that have moved you away from God? This Advent season is the time for them to "be made straight and ? made smooth." Prepare the way in your heart for Christ today! "In the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Cae- sar...and Herod was tetrarch of Galilee...and Lysanias was tetrach of..." Did you need to pinch yourself awake during the first few lines of this Sunday's Gospel? John the Baptist received quite a prelude today as Luke described the religious and political leadership of the time period.

Living trees were also brought into homes during the old Germany feast of Yule, which originally was a two month feast beginning in November. The Yule tree was planted in a tub and brought into the home. But there is no evidence that the Christmas tree is a direct descendent of the Yule tree. Evidence does point to the Paradise tree however. This story goes back to the 11th century religious plays. One of the most popular was the Paradise Play. The play depicted the story of the creation of Adam and Eve, their sin, and their banishment from Paradise. The only prop on the stage was the Paradise tree, a fir tree adorned with apples.

    KILQUADE PARISH NEWSLETTER Second Sunday in Ordinary Time 19th January 2020 St. Patrick’s St. Joseph’s St. Anthony’s Holy Spirit Oratory Facing our deepest personal truths is always difficult; it calls us to not just drift along with this world’s evil, al- ways taking the line of least resistance. Discipleship is urgent and costly, but it is also possible and is the way towards the deeper joy and fulfilment that our soul is longing for. If we properly hear the Baptist as he wit- nesses to Christ, our response will be a stock-taking that goes to the root of our being. It may even reveal to us the truth that sets us free. WICKLOW HOSPICE OPENS Two thoughts emerge from today’s readings. The first is John’s dramatic declaration, Behold the Lamb of God. the second is an invitation to do a personal stock- taking during this first month of the new year and make some resolutions to improve the quality of our lives.

    KILQUADE PARISH NEWSLETTER The Ascension of The Lord Year B: 13th May 2018 St. Patrick’s St. Joseph’s St. Anthony’s Carmelite Church Holy Spirit Oratory Kilquade Newtown Kilcoole Delgany Newcastle Mark's abrupt transition from Ascension to action makes his meaning clear. The Ascension isn't just about Jesus. It's about us. Are we ready to go? Are we ready to be commissioned? This is the heart of the As- cension message -Jesus leaves so we can go. We might not "go into the whole world," but we all live in a corner of it. The command to "proclaim the Gospel" isn't a call for everyone to be formal preachers of the Word. We do, however, proclaim our beliefs with the way we live our lives. Do our lives proclaim Easter joy? " The Ascension is an interesting feast when you think about it. We celebrate Jesus leaving! Jesus' first depar- ture from the earth was sudden and unexpected, at least to his followers. That Good Friday departure was characterized by sorrow, confusion, and loss. This de- parture has a different feel: anticipation. Today's Gospel is full of the mighty deeds Jesus pre- ST. ANTHONY’S CHURCH, KILCOOLE, dicts for his followers.

  • 2016 – 2022 Record of Protected Structures
    COUNTY Record of Protected Structures 2016 – 2022 WICKLOW COUNTY DEVELOPMENT PLAN Comhairle Contae Chill Mhantáin DECEMBER 2016 Wicklow County Council - Record of Protected Structures Each development plan must include policy objectives to protect structures or parts of structures of special interest within its functional area under Section 10 of the Planning and Development Act, 2000. The primary means of achieving this objective is for the planning authority to compile and maintain a record of protected structures to be included in the development plan. A planning authority is obliged to include in the Record of Protected Structures every structure which, in its opinion, is of special architectural, historical, archaeological, artistic, cultural, scientific, social or technical interest. A ‘protected structure’ is defined as any structure or specified part of a structure, which is included in the Record of Protected Structures. A structure is defined by the Planning and Development Act, 2000 as ‘any building, structure, excavation, or other thing constructed or made on, in or under any land, or any part of a structure’. In relation to a protected structure, the meaning of the term ‘structure’ is expanded to include: (a) the interior of the structure; (b) the land lying within the curtilage of the structure; (c) any other structures lying within that curtilage and their interiors, and (d) all fixtures and features which form part of the interior or exterior of the above structures. Where indicated in the Record of Protected Structures, protection may also include any specified feature within the attendant grounds of the structure which would not otherwise be included.

    KILQUADE PARISH NEWSLETTER Third Sunday of Easter Year B: 15th April 2018 St. Patrick’s St. Joseph’s St. Anthony’s Carmelite Church Holy Spirit Oratory Kilquade Newtown Kilcoole Delgany Newcastle Why now? Why this increased depth of understanding? The answer lies in the shifting role of the Apostles. "You are witnesses of these things." The treasury of truth is no longer Jesus' responsibility alone but our own. Then and there, the Apostles are appointed to proclaim the death and resurrection of Jesus, the forgiveness of sins and the mercy of God. This message is no longer for only the Jewish people but "all the nations." This is our invitation! We have the rich heritage of the Church's teaching. By sacramental grace, God's "peace" is "with [us]." We, too, are sent to proclaim the Good News of Jesus Christ and the hope that belongs to his call. "Why do questions arise in your hearts?" After the Res- urrection, the Apostles experienced their fair share of incredulity. Jesus had died-John had been there-and now the tomb was empty. What should they believe? Was the Jesus before them truly real? And who was Jesus really? It's no surprise that the Apostles were ini- tially "startled and terrified" to the extent that they "thought that they were seeing a ghost." PRO-LIFE MEETING 18TH APRIL: Jesus has compassion on his confused friends. Once he affirms his non-ghostly identity--"look at my hands and my feet, that it is I myself"--Jesus gets down to There is nothing to be gained by denying the truth business.

God gave us freedom so that our love can be real, but this means our choices really matter. We can decide not to reflect God's interpersonal love in the world. We can opt not to return the love that God pours out to each of us. But this can only lead to disap- pointment in the end. After all, God sent his Son so that "everyone who believes in him might not perish but might have eternal life." Ultimately, this means spend- ing eternity in the Trinitarian embrace of love. So why not start now?" "God so loved the world that he gave his only Son." We are used to this profound idea, so used to it that we of- ten glaze over the incredible reality: God the Father has CORPUS CHRISTI PROCESSION: a Son who became man and dwelt among us!
