CATECHESIS FOR PADRE PIO'S PRAYER GROUPS
April 2021
See more on the official website of Padre Pio's Prayer Groups
" You Shall Be My Witnesses "
Since we are still in level 5 lockdown, which does not allow for public worship, the proposed date that was set last September for Confirmation i.e. Friday, 30th April 2021 is cancelled.
When the Church does reopen for public worship and when I get the necessary instruction from the Archbishop, I can set a new date for the Confirmation ceremony.

" Do This In Memory " is the Parish Preparation Programme for First Holy Communion.
(Provisional First Holy Communion Date - Saturday, 15th May 2021 )

At this time we pray for the happy repose of the souls of all who passed away recently. May they rest in peace.
May He support us all the day long,

and our work is done.
Then in His mercy may He give us a safe lodging,
and a holy rest and peace at the last.

A Prayer in the Time of the Coronavirus
Almighty and All-loving God,
Father, Son and Holy Spirit,
we pray to you through Christ the Healer
for those who suffer from the Coronavirus Covid-19
in Ireland and across the world.
We pray too for all who reach out to those who mourn the loss
of each and every person who has died as a result of contracting the disease.
Give wisdom to policymakers,
skill to healthcare professionals and researchers,
comfort to everyone in distress
and a sense of calm to us all in these days of uncertainty and distress.
This we ask in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord
who showed compassion to the outcast,
acceptance to the rejected
and love to those to whom no love was shown.
Amen.
