An Evening of Song

Sunday 10 April
Baldonnel Singers, Eadestown Church Choir and friends invite you to an evening of music and song. Tickets available shortly.

Woman of fire, woman of light,
Woman of endless warmth and welcome.
Burn down the walls of indifference
In our heads, our hearts, our cosy lives.
Set our bones ablaze with the fire of your love
For the poor, the dispossessed.
Rekindle our desire to passionately care
About the people for whom there is little welcome.
The homeless ones, the refugees,
Those who lack shelter, food and clean water.
We call on your spirit to awaken us to challenge the injustices in our society.

A Naoimh Bhrid, gui orainn
Amen

Welcome Fr Mícheál

We would like to welcome Fr. Mícheál Comer P.P. to our Parish.

Fr. Mícheál was born in Naas near the start of the Second World War. His father, a sargeant in the Gárdaí, came from County Galway, Glenamaddy. His mother was a native of Mayo, near Ballina – a good western mixture !  There were six boys in the family, our Fr. Mícheál came third in line. They lived in No. 1 Dublin Road until he was about 13, when they moved to Dublin. His older brother, Vincent, became a Holy Ghost Father, who sadly, died a few years ago.

After the C.B.S. Naas, Fr. Mícheál attended C.B.S. Brunswick St. in Dublin. He was ordained in 1964 by Bishop John Charles McQuaid.

He’ll find the parish of Eadestown a quiet place (we hope a haven) ater his nine years as P.P. in Portmarnock (where he swam in the sea every day – at least from May to October – he will have to do with the Annagaul now)!  He loves football and hurling and has no real dislikes – hope he doesn’t pick up any in Eadestown !

Arís, Céad Míle Fáilte agus bail ó Dhia ort inniu, i gcónaí.
