Lent Class with the Cathedral

  • Adare & Kilmallock Group of Parishes (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

A Lent class or group will be held this year via Zoom, joining in with other churches, and led by the Cathedral Chapter (a group of clergy with different roles in the life of the diocesan Cathedrals in Limerick and Killaloe).

The class will be on the five Anglican marks of mission:

  1. To proclaim the Good News of the Kingdom

  2. To teach, baptise and nurture new believers

  3. To respond to human need by loving service

  4. To transform unjust structures of society, to challenge violence of every kind and pursue peace and reconciliation

  5. To strive to safeguard the integrity of creation, and sustain and renew the life of the earth

The class will be held on Tuesdays, beginning on 23 February, the week after Ash Wednesday, at 8.00pm and lasting for about an hour, or less. Five different members of the Cathedral Chapter will each lead one of the sessions.

If you would like to participate in any or all of the sessions, please email Dean Sloane at St. Mary’s Cathedral for the Zoom information.

Mission Sunday 2020

  • Adare & Kilmallock Group of Parishes (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

Mission Sunday is an effort of the Diocese of Limerick to raise donations for a charity each year. Traditionally it takes place on the Last Sunday before Advent. We were not in church on that Sunday, because of Covid-19 restrictions, but we are still having a Mission Sunday!

For our Mission Sunday in 2020 we decided, in January, to support a home-based charity connected with mental health — in hindsight a very appropriate project. We selected two charities working in this area. In the meantime we have learnt that, since March, the demand for their services has in one case increased by 40 % — a sobering thought!

Worship in Adare

After a shutdown of three and a half months, we anticipate being able to return to worshipping in church on 5th July. We will begin with just one parish, in order to get used to what must be done in returning to church, to stay in keeping with protocol issued by the Government. So our first worship service will be at St. Nicholas, Adare, on Sunday, 5 July, at 10:30am.
