St
Oliver Plunkett
Parish Bulletin for Sunday 11th June 2006
| The
Most Holy Trinity
We
talk about wearing ‘different hats’
or filling ‘different roles’ or even
‘multi-tasking’. Maybe today’s
feast in honour of the Trinity is set aside for
such hurried, harried souls. The more wisdom and
years accumulate on our shoulders, the more we
realize in our various relationships that you
can’t know everything about a person; be
they spouse, parent, sibling or friend. There
is always that great unknown area. All our personal
knowledge of another is just that – personal,
from our own personal and limited viewpoint. Still,
some approach the Trinity like it’s a crossword
puzzle – something you can ultimately solve.
However just like our ordinary loving relationships
it’s a mystery not puzzle, a reality you
ultimately stand in awe before.
One woman put it very well.
‘I
am a daughter, a wife and a mother – Three
things, yet I am one totality.
To my parents, I would always be their child,
To my husband, a companion and a mate,
To my children, the one who gave them birth and
nurtured them till they reached adult state.
I seem to each of them a different person;
They each know a different kind of ‘me’,
But I am one, within myself a Trinity,
And each of them finds unity in me.’

Welcome
To Streetreach
|
Thirty
young people from Street Reach will work
in our parish community from Wednesday
5th July to Saturday 9th July. They arrive
at 12.30pm and usually work until about
9.30pm in the evening. We will provide
lunch and an evening meal for them in
the Glen Community Centre. They will be
involved in cleaning streets, removing
graffiti and litter in various streets
around the parish. They will also be arranging
activities for children and senior citizens.
There may be small ways in which parishioners
can help and we will ask for your help
at a later date when arrangements have
been finalised.

Morning
Fiona
McMahon, one of our parishioners, under

Community, is going to Africa to work with
women and children who are innocent victims
of H.I.V. She has asked for our prayers
to help her in this work.

this end a Coffee/Tea Morning is being held
in the church hall on Saturday 17th June
from 10.30am – 12noon. Please come
along and bring your friends and neighbours,
your support and generosity are needed.

Celebrates 30 Years

30 years. To mark the 30th anniversary there will
be a celebration in October at the time of the
cannonisation of St. Oliver Plunkett. To prepare
for this there will be a number of refurbishments
around the Church. Next week the repainting of
the inside of the Church will get underway. Suggestions
of how we can mark the 30th anniversary are especially
