Hello to all parishioners of Dromtariffe. I hope that despite COVID-19 & the bad weather
you are doing well. Please God the numbers will come down more and the vaccine will give great protection to all. It has been a strange year for everybody & for the church too. I long to be able to have Mass & the sacraments with our people. In the meantime, I will continue to say Mass for the people of station districts as they are dated in this newsletter & to offer Masses for any intentions phoned into Evelyn at the parish office. During November I am offering Mass each Monday for all the people you have written down on the November lists. And a very special Mass though private unfortunately, will be offered on Monday 30th November. If you have any relatives who died outside this parish please hand in their names & addresses to the parish office so that can be displayed in the Churches & called out at our special Memorial Mass. As we await information on when we will be allowed gather for Mass again, we will honour Our Lady on her Feast Day Mass on 8th December. Thanks for your great generosity with dues, fund, donation to offertory & November Envelopes. Because of the lack of Mass congregations our finances for the year will be seriously depleted. I am blessing the graves on this Wednesday & praying for all the people buried in each graveyard. Keep up the home prayers & May God’s peace & protection envelop you. Fr Tom

- CHECK THIS OUT on dioceseofkerry.ie Bishop Ray Browne recommends:
I recommend the website of the Irish Catholic Bishops Conference. It is the place to find up to date news on the Church in Ireland and details of many Church services
There is information on education, evangelization, outreach to emigrants and Irish people in prison abroad. I highly recommend this. + Ray
