Global crises come and go. Not so the climate emergency and loss of biodiversity. This crisis is here to stay and in our betrayal of nature, we have caused it. Irreparable damage to Planet Earth, our home, has already happened. Now is the time to act much more decisively to halt further damage. If we don’t look after our home, where will we live? The challenge presented by climate change and loss of biodiversity is being answered by everyone; local communities, governments and global agencies. -
KILQUADE PARISH NEWSLETTER Second Sunday in Ordinary Time 19Th January 2020
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. The Baptist urges us to ask what we are fundamentally about and then seek to reset our lives. And St Paul re- What a great start to 2020. The Wicklow Hospice will minds us that we are “called to be saints together with open its doors in early 2020 to a 15 bed Hospice with a all those who in every place call on the name of our palliative care team attached.

KILQUADE PARISH NEWSLETTER the Ascension of the Lord Year B
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.

They will pick OF THE COMMUNITY: up serpents [with their hands], and if they drink any deadly thing it will not harm them.

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
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. -
