Mother’s Day 2021
The Fields of Athenry
This is a song I like and recorded as part of a fundraiser in the neighbouring parish of Ballaghaderreen. It is called BallaghsBattle4Barretstown (#Battle4Barretstown) and is organised by the Ballaghaderreen GAA Club (@BallaghGaa) and is raising funds for Barretstown, Co. Kildare – a facility offering support to children who are receiving cancer treatment and, in addition, camps and facilities for their siblings.

Worth a thousand words
In recent times I have taken a lot of photos. Most of them are very local since travel is not really an option. I have shared a number of them on our Parish Facebook Page but this is “sherlock’s home” so I want to share some of them here as well!
Epiphany Prayer
Earlier this evening, January 6th, I shared some reflections at the Crib in Kilmovee Parish Church.
