Eily’s Report – 19th November

Dia is Mhuire díobh go léir a cáirde and welcome to my report.

Being prepared either in mind or body for the rapid changes in our weather isn’t easy. For the past week or so we’ve been wallowing in the mildest stretch of fine weather in a long, long time and then wham, we are told that snow is on the way. The fine snap was indeed a welcome gift from Mother Nature. It was great that we were able to go outside and enjoy the wonders of Autumn all around us.  Also it was great to see cattle out grazing on rich grassy paddocks which were dry a bare a couple of months ago and farmers having to feed them with their precious winter feed. This welcome handout will help to stretch their supplies much further.

Irish Pilgrimage Trust Lourdes Easter 2025

Ally Moynihan and Evie O’Leary

Two 5th year students from Millstreet Community School will be participating
in the Irish Pilgrimage Trust young people’s pilgrimage to Lourdes during their
Easter holidays 2025. Ally Moynihan and Evie O’Leary will be acting as student
helpers and travelling to Lourdes with Group 126. Millstreet students have
been travelling with this group since 2011.
As was the case in the past, the aim is to cover accommodation and travel
costs for the two students (€750/person) with all extra funds being passed
onto Group 126. Each group is meant to raise the funds to cover the costs of
all the young people with special needs who travel with them to Lourdes.
The girls are now beginning their fundraising but the main events will be held
in the new year. A table quiz in Corkery’s Bar, Millstreet on Friday 31st January
2025 and a ‘pre-Lent’ bake sale in Millstreet Parish Centre after Masses over
the weekend of 1st and 2nd of March.
Your support for these fundraising efforts would be greatly appreciated.(We thank John Magee, Chaplain MCS for this feature.  Tap on the image to enlarge.)

Splendid Comedy by Glen Theatre Drama Group on 23rd & 24th Nov. as well as 1st & 8th Dec. 2024

Are you all looking for a laugh this winter? We certainly hope so.
The Glen Theatre Drama Group has a comedy for you beginning Saturday November 23rd and running Nov 24th, Dec 1st, and Dec 8th.
Written by Ballydesmond writer, the late Seán Buckley, ‘Roger’s Final Farewell’ follows the Johnson household with matriarch Aggie and her two daughters; Hazel and Purdly. They are mourning the recent death of household patriarch Roger. However, his drinking and gambling debts are revealed, throwing the home into disarray. A collection of strange characters in and out of the house, including a confused Irish War of Independence veteran Grandfather, with a ‘strong patriotic devotion to Ireland’, only adds to the hilarious chaos.
To book tickets, phone 029 56239.   (We thank Tadhg Curtin for this feature.)
