In this Holy Season we invite you to join with us in celebrating the birth of our Lord Jesus Christ

Loving God, help us remember the birth of Jesus,

Close the door of hate
and open the door of love all over the world.
Let kindness come with every gift and good desires with every greeting.
Deliver us from evil by the blessing which Christ brings.

May the Christmas morning make us happy to be your children,
and Christmas evening bring us to our beds with grateful thoughts,
forgiving and forgiven, for Jesus’ sake. Amen.

May you and your family have a peaceful and happy Christmas

From Fr. Michael O’Dwyer, Fr. John Burns, the Parish Pastoral Council and the wider Church community
