Weekly Bulletin Easter Sunday 24th April 2011
TROCAIRE
In Honduras families are defenceless against powerful landowners as well as complex and corrupt political and judicial systems. Families live their lives subjected to threats, intimidation and violence, simply because they are poor and voiceless. They need support to protect themselves, to stand up for their rights and make a better life for the future. This Lent your support will help countless invisible communities who are living in fear and in danger simply because they are living in poverty. Trocaire boxes are available for collection at the church doors.
COMMUNION IN THE HOME
We invite parishioners to inform the priests if any members of their families or neighbours who may be housebound and would wish the Eucharist to be taken to them periodically.
