Parish Announcements

November Novena for Holy Souls:

Begins with Mass in
all three churches on Saturday morning as follows: 10 am in Canovee; 11 am. in Kilmurry; Cloughduv at 12 noon. Envelopes for names of those to be included can be had at church doors. Or if you wish just write the names on plain paper, pop them into a plain envelope with your offering and write 'November Novena' on the outside. Get them in by Saturday. It continues daily until Nov. 10. Times of daily Mass from Nov. 4 will be given next week.
Indulgences for the Holy Souls

1. From 12 noon on Nov. 1 to midnight on Nov. 2, all who having confessed, received Holy Communion and prayed for the Pope's intentions (one Our Father and Hail Mary, or any other prayer of one's choice), can gain one plenary indulgence by visiting a church or oratory, and there reciting one Our Father and the Apostle's Creed.
This indulgence is applicable only to the souls of the departed,
Confession may be made at any time within the week preceding or following 1st. Nov.

2, The faithful who visit a cemetery and pray for the dead may gain a plenary indulgence applicable only to the Holy Souls on the usual conditions once each day from 1 to 8 Nov. The conditions mentioned above apply also for this.


The November Novena of Masses begins on Sat. 2nd and ends on the 10th. Get the names of your loved ones included and better still make the effort for them and be there yourself. They depend on you and they deserve it. The envelopes are at the church doors.

Feast of All Saints, Nov 1 is a Holyday of Obligation. Masses will be as on Sunday; i.e. Thursday evening as on Saturday evenings and Friday morning as on Sundays in all three churches.

From the Pastor's Desk

The Church still needs you.

My thoughts turn in a special way to you, widows and widowers, who find yourselves alone in the final part of your lives; to you, elderly men and women Religious, who for long years have faithfully served the cause of the Kingdom of Heaven; and to you, dear brother Priests and Bishops, who for reasons of age, no longer have direct responsibility for pastoral ministry. The Church still needs you. She appreciates the services that you may wish to provide in many areas of the apostolate; she counts on the support of your longer periods of prayer; she counts on your advice born of experience; and she is enriched by your daily witness to the Gospel. (Pope John Paul II Letter to the Elderly 1999)
.



The One-Sentence Sermon:
Give God what is right, not what is left.


+++++++


Don't wait for six strong men to take you to church

 


Think About It
Don't let your parents down,
they brought you up.
Be humble enough to obey,
You may give orders some day.
Chose your companions with care,
You become what they are.
Guard your thoughts, what you think
Is what you are.
Be master of your habits
or they will master you.
Pay attention when you drive,
Drive safely and arrive.
Resist pressure, stand up,
Or you'll fall for anything.
Keep God in your life,
He is always there for you.

Journey to the Promised Land
This coming week we celebrate two Feasts which should give all of us food for thought. Friday is the Feast of All Saints, and Saturday that of All Souls. We all will have family and friends who belong to one or other category and it our earnest hope that when life here is over for us we too will join their ranks. That depends on the effort we put in to reach that Promised Land.

All Saints, Nov.1.
For those without faith life's journey leads to nowhere. We are all on a journey. For those with faith it leads to The Promised Land. On Friday we celebrate the saints with the small "s", who have never been canonised and whose goodness was known only to God, to family and friends. For them it is their crowning achievement and we will be rejoicing with them. We will be praying to them too.

All Souls, Nov.2.

Purgatory is part of our faith. It is a consoling doctrine, not an optional extra. It means that those who die free from grave sin but with un repented venial sin are assured of getting to heaven when free from these imperfections. However, they have passed the time of merit and now depend on our prayers, good works and sacrifices offered on their behalf.

The Church, conscious of how easily we can forget, sets aside each year the month of November as the Month of the Holy Souls. There are many ways we can help them. See what the Church has to say in another part of this Newsletter about indulgences we can gain for them; we can make a special effort to get to Mass daily and offer it for them. St. Monica as she lay dying appealed to her son St. Augustine to remember her at the altar of God. The Mass has traditionally been regarded as the best way of helping the Holy Souls because in it Christ offers again the sacrifice of his life to his Eternal Father. Just visit a church to say a prayer or light a candle for loved ones you wish to remember in a prayerful and helpful way. Those gone before us led by example. Could we not begin again to offer the Family Rosary while we reflect on the life and death of the Saviour and his Blessed Mother.


Prayer for Vocations
God our Father, send workers into your harvest. May the Spirit we received in Baptism touch the hearts of many to offer themselves in priesthood, religious life, and other forms of service. Give the parents and families of our parish, the wisdom and courage to support young people, in searching for and following the call of God in their lives

Dear Sirs:
I am in the process of trying to locate the exact place in County Cork from which my Buckley ancestors emigrated to the United States in 1836. On Murthey Buckley's tombstone is written: "a native of Ireland, county of Cork, parrish of Conway." Several years ago, a genealogist in Dublin led us to believe that "Conway" is the old name for "Convamore," an estate which lies adjacent to Ballyhooly. However, Irish researcher Tom O'Leary recently found information which indicates that "Conway" is probably a mis-spelling of "Cannaway," a civil parish within the Catholic parish of Kilmurry.
So now I am concentrating on Kilmurry, and I find that at least one Buckley family currently lives in that village. I would very much like to contact them and wonder whether you could provide me with their address. Perhaps they would know of a Murthey and Catherine Buckley, with young son John Franklin, who left County Cork in 1836.
Any assistance you can give me will be greatly appreciated.
