Cathedral of Our Lady Assumed into Heaven & St Nicholas

There is no doubt: we are all in need of deepening our faith, along with those who feel called to join the Catholic Church.
This programme is designed to cater for both.

Parish resources for the Season of Creation are available here.

In his prayer intention for September, Pope Francis asks everyone to pray that we learn to respect the planet’s resources. The full text of his prayer intention for September 2020 is:

We are squeezing out the planet’s goods. Squeezing them out, as if the earth were an orange.

Irish Catholic Catechism for Adults

Rev. Martin Whelan, Galway Cathedral curate, has been recording a series of podcasts based on The Irish Catholic Catechism for Adults, a resource produced by the Irish Episcopal Conference: CLICK HERE to access the podcasts.

Pope Francis is encouraging the faithful to pray the Rosary during the month of May, when the People of God express with particular intensity their love and devotion for the Blessed Virgin Mary.

Here is a leaflet published by tSlí Chríost promoting a May altar for Our Lady.

SHORT ONLINE REFLECTION EVERY SUNDAY EVENING UNTIL PENTECOST ::

The six Western Dioceses are implementing a new online initiative as part of the ongoing response to the pastoral challenge presented by COVID-19: a short (20 minute) reflection each Sunday evening at 6.30pm, between now and Pentecost. Each reflection will be given by a different guest presenter and will be broadcast on webcam (and/or other platforms) from a different location in the West. The relevant links will be posted each week.
