5th Sunday in Ordinary Time 4th Feb: Focus: Let us strive to proclaim the Gospel by our everyday words & actions. – In the Gospel, we hear that the Good News of Jesus is spreading to many towns & villages. Jesus tells his disciples that he has come for the purpose of preaching & teaching. That is our purpose as well. Let us strive to spread the Gospel in our everyday lives.
SYMPATHY: We remember in our prayers at this time: Concepta Scanlon, (nee Powell), her Month’s Mind Mass in Gurteen on Saturday 10th Feb at 11am, Helen McCarrick, Cloonbaniff, whose anniversary occurs at this time, her anniversary Mass will be celebrated later.
May the Souls of the faithful departed rest in peace.

Far too many people do not understand that life begins at the moment of conception.
TDs & Senators have begun declaring their stances on the 8th Amendment, & debate has begun in the Dáil on the Oireachtas committee's recommendation to allow abortion on demand up to 12 weeks. Most shockingly, we saw Fianna Fáil Leader Micheál Martin come out in favour of both repeal AND the committee's recommendation... & the Taoiseach has told the Dáil that he is "very committed" to a referendum in May.
It's clear that many politicians are caving under political pressure from the abortion supporters. But the good news is, it is the PEOPLE of Ireland who will ultimately decide this question!
