Dates for 2019 Safeguarding Children teams are in place in all of our churches, the Church’s safeguarding children policy is available at www.meathsafeguarding.ie. Also there are contact numbers available in the back of all the churches. Hospitalised or Housebound: If a parishioner or family member is hospitalised or housebound and you would like Fr. Brendan to call for the sacraments, it is vitally important that you let him know. Due to Data Protection the Hospitals do not give out the names of people who are in the hospital so it is down to the family to inform Fr. Brendan Pre-signed Mass cards; the government brought in rules (Charities Act 2009) to stop the selling of pre-signed Mass cards in shops. Sadly these laws are been ignore by some. In our Parish when a mass card is signed, be it a mass for the deceased, get well mass, or a special intention the date in which the mass is been offered is written on the card and is also published in our bulletin. This assures the person getting the mass and the family or person receiving it, if so desired, can attend or at least they know when it been offered and where. Mass & Bouquet Cards are available for signing if you wish to get a mass in the parish and are available in each of our Churches sacristy’s and the Parochial House.
