Pentecost Sunday 5th June: Focus: Today is Pentecost, the birthday of the Church, honouring the coming of the Holy Spirit into our midst. – The early Church was expanded when the resurrected Jesus left his disciples, promising to send the Holy Spirit to be with them on earth. Empowered by his presence among them, they began preaching the word even though they faced many challenges. The people listened & were baptized, & the Church was born.

All Masses for the next week are in Achonry Church.

Prayer for the Synodal Pathway

Lord of all hopefulness, as we embark on this journey together,
may we listen & discern & be guided by the Holy Spirit,

who constantly breathes new life into our world, our hearts,

our families, homes & parishes.

May renewal & reform, fresh hope & healing come for all people of God in Ireland.
By virtue of our baptism may we each play our part in transforming the church
through a fresh outpouring of the Holy Spirit

which is your gift & promise, upon our land.

Grant us the encouragement we need to bring faith, hope & love in abundance to meet the challenges before us & to fulfil the Church's mission of proclaiming to the world,

God's love & salvation in Jesus Christ.

A Mhuire Mháthair, mother of the Church,

guard & guide us on our pilgrim way. Amen.

"A world at prayer is a world at peace"

The Family that Prays together stays together”
