St Macartan’s Cathedral Restoration
Special Diocesan Collection 15th/16th November in St Patrick’s Tyholland
At the request of Bishop Larry Duffy, the parish of Tyholland along with all others throughout the Diocese of Clogher will participate in a special collection next weekend. The restoration of St. Macartan’s Cathedral is a significant undertaking, spread over 7 phases. Fundraising for the current phase 4 is underway, with €1.4m raised in less than 12 months. Some of you have already supported our campaign and for that we are most grateful. Support now is being requested from across all parishes to ensure the Cathedral is preserved. We encourage everyone to make a donation next weekend in our special collection. Envelopes will be available at the back of the church for those who miss 15th/16th November but would like to donate at a later stage. Please note, if you are making a donation by cheque, please make your cheque payable to Diocese of Clogher. All donors will be remembered in a dedicated Mass of Thanksgiving in St. Macartan’s Cathedral (date to follow)
Candles in memory of the “Holy Souls” this month of November available at 10.30 am Mass in St Patricks Church, Tyholland. Donations to the local branch of the Vocation Society of St Joseph.
