Lent Week 2 Monday

Lent Week 2 Monday

The key-line in today’s readings at Mass is “Be compassionate as your Father is compassionate”.  It goes on to say,”Do not judge, and you will not be judged yourselves; do not condemn, and you will not be condemned yourselves; grant pardon, and you will be pardoned”.

It makes so much sense and yet is not always easy to live by or recall, not least when we feel wronged.  This remains, nonetheless, at the heart of our faith and the Christian way of living.

Into the second week of Lent now, maybe it’s not a bad challenge to set before us.

Kilkelly St Patrick’s Day Parade

Kilkelly St Patrick’s Day Parade

The first ever St Patrick’s Parade in Kilkelly took place on the evening of St Patrick’s Day.  A wonderful turnout of people, a very well organised event and in excess of fifty floats and exhibitors ensured it was a successful beginning.  Well done to all involved.  Took some photos – more than I realised and thought I’d share here.  I hope that’s okay.

Well done to all involved and to all who turned out to mark the beginning of what could well become a much-loved tradition.
