Cemetery Sundays: Cemetery Sundays, the Sundays when parish communities come together for the Blessing of the Graves, usually attract very large congregations. However, in current circumstances, we have been advised by Bishop Hayes that such large gatherings should not take place. This means that for the second year running, we will not have any Blessings of Graves ceremonies in either Derrylin or Cemeteries. The bishop reminds us of the importance of remembering the Faithful Departed. It is important to visit the graves of our loved ones and pray for them. Might we suggest that the next time you visit your family grave, you bring along some holy water and sprinkle it on the grave as you say your prayers. In this way your family plot will be blessed.

Mission of My Life God has created me to do Him some definite service. He has committed some work to me which He has not committed to another. I have my mission. I may never know it in this life, but I shall be told it in the next. I am a link in a chain, a bond of connection between persons. He has not created me for naught. I shall do good; I shall do His work. I shall be an angel of peace, a preacher of truth in my own place, while not intending it if I do but keep His commandments. Therefore, I will trust Him, whatever I am, I can never be thrown away. If I am in sickness, my sickness may serve Him, in perplexity, my perplexity may serve Him. If I am in sorrow, my sorrow may serve Him. He does nothing in vain. He knows what He is about. He may take away my friends. He may throw me among strangers. He may make me feel desolate, make my spirits sink, hide my future from me. Still, He knows what He is about. Prayer of Cardinal Newman

KNOCKNINNY SUNDAY NEWSLETTER 11th July 2021 Fifteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time

The first mission Two phrases come to mind as I read about the disciples heading off on their first mission: 'baptism of fire' and 'to be thrown in at the deep end'. We use these expressions to describe a difficult introduction to a new job or activity, when we are expected to learn as we go and cope with whatever obstacles we face. In today's Gospel, Jesus sends the Twelve out on their first mission. It is a challenging one and his instructions are brief and very specific: they are to bring nothing but a staff - no food or money - meaning they will have to rely on the hospitality of others for all their needs. They are to stay wherever they are welcomed, rather than move around from house to house, so they can't be choosy about their lodgings. Simplicity is key - no baggage, no luxuries, no distractions, nothing but the task of reaching to people. It might not be plain sailing, but Jesus offers advice for those difficult times too. It appears their mission of preaching and healing was successful, as we are told the disciples came back eager to fill Jesus in. Imagine the experiences they must have had during this time - the people they met and helped, the generosity of those who welcomed them, the conversations on the road, the chance to share their excitement at everything Jesus was doing. They were certainly thrown into a challenging situation, but they returned with a fresh perspective and strengthened faith. Jesus calls us to step out into the unknown, his words as our guide and his bond with us unbreakable. 'A boat is safe in the harbour, but this not the purpose of a boat.' (Paulo Coelho)
