St. Vincent de Paul Meeting
There will be a meeting of the St. Vincent de Paul Society in Ballysloe School on Tuesday night at 7.30.
Trocaire
You have probably received your Trocaire Box. Lent is the time when the Church invites us to be generous to people who are living in the Third World and need very much help. We should always be disturbed to see a child or adult at the point of death because of starvation. Ask God to inspire you towards real generosity during these few weeks of Lent and be proud of what you have to give on Holy Thursday to Trocaire. Extra boxes in Church porch.
