PRAYER FOR THE FEAST OF SS PETER AND PAUL APOSTLES                  

Heavenly Father, on this special day we honour Your apostles, Saint Peter and Saint Paul, whose lives dedicated to You continue to inspire us. Grant us the courage to follow their example of faith, humility, and devotion. May their steadfastness strengthen our resolve to serve You faithfully in all we do. Bless us with the grace to build up Your Kingdom of love and peace, just as they did. We make our prayer through Christ our Lord. Amen.

CONGRATULATIONS AND BEST WISHES:

We warmly congratulate and thank our Sacristan, Peter Hastings as he retires from ten years of loyal service at St. Mary's Church, Westport. His careful attention to detail and hard-working dedication have been a great blessing to our parish community. We are deeply grateful for his faithful service and the many ways he has enriched our worship. We express our heartfelt appreciation and best wishes for Peter's retirement. May God continue to bless him and his family in this new chapter of their life.

WE REMEMBER ALL WHO HAVE DIED RECENTLY:

Saoirse Duggan, Bekan, Claremorris.

Mary O’Toole, Liverpool & late of Culleen

Rose Scanlon, Kinnock.

Rest in Peace.
