Thank You – ‘Míle Buíochas’
As we celebrate Christmas and bring the year 2022 to a close, I feel that I’m very privileged and indeed it is my honour to work with you as your Parish Priest here in Listowel. I would like to take this opportunity to thank you sincerely for the support that you give to your Parish and to me personally throughout the year. It takes a lot of people to make a Parish active and to keep it going in these difficult and challenging times. It could not happen only that we are blessed with good staff, Parish Secretary Denise and both sacristans Helen and Martina and a lot of volunteers who are dedicated to our Parish. Many of you work behind the scenes and you might feel your work sometimes goes unnoticed, but each person in their own right play their part, and each does it so well. A special thanks to Fr. Martin, Fr. Jack, Fr. Brendan & Fr. Anthony of our Pastoral Area.
I thank the Parish Finance Council who keeps an eye on the Parish Finances. I thank the Parish Pastoral Council and the Safeguarding Committee for their support and guidance. Thanks to the Parish Liturgy Group who co-ordinate the various ministries and liturgies. The Eucharistic Ministers, the lectors / readers, the collectors, the counters who count the offerings, the Parish Choir, the Parish Folk Group, the members, their directors and musicians. We are blessed to have Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament weekly in our Parish. Thank you all who make it possible. We have the Padre Pio Prayer Group & Legion of Mary who run their regular meetings - I’m not forgetting our Altar Servers, their parents and teachers for their support. You all do a great job, and your help is much appreciated.
To those who clean the church - not alone is this done for Christmas, but it is done quietly all year around. Those who donate flowers and look after both inside and outside the church and Presbytery grounds throughout the year. So many visitors remark on how well each place looks. This is a tribute to you, so take a bow. To those of you who put up the Crib and those who are available at moments call to do the various maintenance jobs throughout the year.
We are dependant on each other for friendship, support, and finance. Thank you for your generosity and kindness to your Parish and to me personally right throughout the year. I pray that God will bless and reward you and your family with all his gifts this Christmas and throughout the new year of 2023.
God Bless Fr. Declan

Some notes from the Parish Pastoral Council Meeting on 23rd November
Selection of various officers within the Parish Pastoral Council:
Grace Leahy was elected as chair of the Parish Pastoral Council,
Anne Fitzmaurice volunteered to be the secretary,
Shane Hanrahan volunteered to be the Area Pastoral Council representative for Moyvane while
Brenda Clancy volunteered for Knockanure.
Tara Mulvihill and Shane Hanrahan agreed to co-ordinate liturgy (including choir, readers, altar servers and general order of service).
On discussion of the reduction of the number of Masses, good reasons were given for holding on to all three Masses. The reasons varied and it was not possible to prioritise. It will be the task of the Area Pastoral co-ordinator(s) to choose in accord with area (as against parish) needs. The hope is that the best schedule is found which will mean balancing the number of Masses available with the availability of priests in this area of North Kerry.
It was moreover noted that in future we may have to think about having prayer services (with Holy Communion) instead of Mass, not solely on weekdays but on Sundays.
Other Notices:
St. Vincent De Paul will be holding their Annual Church Gate collection at all Masses next weekend, 10th & 11th Dec.
Care of the aged Moyvane/Knockanure, chiropodist will attend Marian Hall Fri. 9th of Dec. at 10am, for appt contact Anne 087-6146590.

Bishop Ray was absolutely delighted to honour her and acknowledge her dedicated service to our Parish over all the years. Our thanks to our Parish Pastoral Council and our Parish Choir for the work that they put into it. It was truly emotional occasion for Sr. Consolata who has been here in Listowel since 1960. In her gentle and humble way, she said: ‘I have loved every minute of my ministries here. Listowel means so much to me and I have been lucky to have been left here so long. I want to say thanks to you all for your support’. We are eternally grateful to her and wish you every blessing as she continues to carry on with her music ministry with our Parish Choir.

Weekend Mass, because of a diminishing number of Priests and in an effort to be more effective, we have been urged by the Area Diocesan Pastoral Council to reduce our weekend Masses i.e., 2 instead of 3.
At a glance, this might mean on Sundays having Mass at Knockanure at 9.30am and at Moyvane at 11am, Vigil Mass would be dropped.
Any input on this is welcome on/before Sunday Nov.20th.

PRESENTATION OF BENEMERENTI MEDAL TO SR CONSOLATA
Our Parish Pastoral Council are delighted to welcome Bishop Ray as celebrant our 11.30 a.m. mass this Sunday when he will present the Benemerenti Medal to our own Sr. Consolata as we celebrate Presentation Day at our 11.30 a.m. Mass. This is in recognition of her unreal dedicated lifelong service to music ministry in our Parish since she made her final profession in Listowel in August 1965. The Benemerenti Medal is one of the highest honours awarded by Pope Francis to members of the clergy, religious and laity for service to the Catholic Church. The word ‘bene merenti’ comes from the Latin ‘for acquitting oneself well’. No other person is more deserving than Sr. Consolata. As we celebrate Presentation Day - the Presentation Secondary School pupils will host the Mass and will be joined by our Choir led by Sr. Consolata. The presentation will take place immediately after the final blessing and all are welcome.

KERRY DIOCESAN EUCHARISTIC ADORATION RETREAT takes place at St. Brendan's Pastoral Centre, Upper Rock St Tralee on Saturday 22nd October 2022 after three years due to the Covid Pandemic. Further information later with full Retreat details.
WELCOME BACK NOTE FROM OUR
PARISH PASTORAL COUNCIL:
It is great that we as a Parish are getting back more and more to normality while we are conscious that Covid may still be with us. While the Web Cam is a great facility for those who cannot be with us there is nothing to replace being physically present with your community and we all need to receive the Eucharist. Some of our ministers may have taken a break during Covid and we would really welcome you back if you could make yourself available. It is not fair to be depending just on the same few always and the more that are involved the better. We welcome back all former members and any new person who might be willing to join any of the various ministries of our church, so that we can continue to keep this great Parish vibrant and alive. If interested, please contact the Parish Office at our email: listowel@dioceseofkerry.ie or phone 068-21188 inform the Denise. Many Thanks

The Pastoral Council met on Wednesday evening where its constitution was considered and approved. This is a guiding document to enable the Council to be more self-directing in accord with diocesan norms. It should enable the parish to assume more responsibility for Church-related matters.
Some discussion on the mode of collection followed and it was agreed for now to continue to have baskets in prominent places inside the church doors. Please do not see non-passing of baskets as an indication that we do not need contributions. We do. We remain however jittery in the face of the Covid situation at the onset of winter.
Consideration of energy use followed. It was proposed that we reduce the number of Masses from 3 to 2; Knockanure 7:30 (Sat) and Moyvane 10:30 (Sunday). Because some such arrangement is likely to come from the diocese soon, we did not come to any conclusion.
It was also suggested that we heat sections of the churches (Moyvane especially) for weekend Masses. This was considered but it was agreed that this might not be appreciated though it may be a more responsible way ahead. It was however proposed at the Tuesday and Thursday Mass in Moyvane that heating would be confined to the front of the altar area.

WELCOME BACK NOTE FROM OUR
PARISH PASTORAL COUNCIL:
It is great that we as a Parish are getting back more and more to normality while we are conscious that Covid may still be with us. Now that the Races are over, many are making a fresh start and we are putting out a special plea, to warmly welcome families and their children to return to mass regularly. Some may have got out of the habit of attending church in person during the lockdown. The Web Cam has been a great facility for those who cannot be with us and this will continue. However, there is nothing to replace being physically present with your community and you need to receive the Eucharist. We warmly welcome back our Parish Folk Group & our Parish Choir who add so much to our liturgies. We are delighted that our Altar Servers are about to begin also. We welcome back all members of the various ministries of our church, so that we can continue to keep this great Parish vibrant and alive. If we can assist you in anyway, please contact the Parish Office.

SEASON OF CREATION 2022
“We need to act courageously. We do not have time to wait. We are at the edge with climate change and the time to take action is now. We must care for nature so that nature may care for us.” ~ Pope Francis
The Season of Creation 2022, began on Thursday last - September 1st (World Day of Prayer for Creation) and will run until October 4th (Feast of St. Francis of Assisi). This Season is a wonderful opportunity to respond to the call of Pope Francis to listen to the cry of the earth and the cry of the poor. A lovely brochure produced by Trocaire is available at the back of the church and also in our Parish Office. Today, the prevalence of unnatural fires are a sign of the devastating effects that climate change has on the most vulnerable of our planet. Creation cries out as forests burn, animals flee, and people are forced to migrate. Record temperatures across the world this year have shown us that climate change is affecting all regions and all systems and will make parts of the world uninhabitable for human beings. We are invited to listen to the Voice of Creation which is all around us. What is God saying to us through the Book of Nature? Spend more time, with awareness, evoking the senses, contemplating God’s love for us through creation - “for we know that things can change!” (Laudato Si’, 13). For more information about the Season of Creation, feel free to contact jane.mellett@trocaire.org

===============================
“We need to act courageously. We do not have time to wait. We are at the edge with climate change and the time to take action is now. We must care for nature so that nature may care for us.” ~ Pope Francis
The big story last week was the heatwave - soaring temperatures even here in Kerry - Heatwaves in the UK with temperatures reaching over 40C, more heatwaves all across Europe and how scientists point to the cause directly linked to climate change. It was a big story at the time - but now that we are back to some cooler and wetter weather we quickly forget how serious the situation is. It’s a story that will not go away because of climate change. Trocaire chillingly reminds us that today a child dies every 48 seconds due to the impact of drought and climate change in our world. Currently Kenya, Somalia and Ethiopia are experiencing extreme droughts because of a lack of rain. People experiencing hunger in these countries have risen from 10 million to more than 23 million. When you add in regional conflicts and soaring food prices because of the war in Ukraine you can see how serious the situation is. For many people in poor countries it is simply a battle to survive. But the evidence brings it even closer to home as we heard throughout this August, that 44% of the European Union face a threat of drought going forward. We also heard how emissions in Ireland have increased by 6% in 2021 after a drop in 2020. This story is not going away. We all must play a part and do something no matter how small. The Africans have a wise saying: “If you think you’re too small to make a difference, try spending the night with a mosquito.” If there is any lesson to learn from all the heatwave stories of the week just gone, the message is that we all must play our part to find a solution. Pope Francis puts it well:
“We need to act courageously and we need to act now.”

MISSION APPEAL FOR THE SOCIETY OF ST. PATRICKS’S MISSIONARY SOCIETY (KILTEGAN FATHERS) NEXT WEEKEND
The Diocese of Kerry gives permission to one religious congregation each year to promote their Mission. This year it is the Kiltegan Fathers and it is taking place here in Listowel on – 20th / 21st August. We welcome our local man Fr. Tim Galvin who is at home on holidays at the moment who will be making the appeal on their behalf. The Kiltegan Fathers were founded on St. Patrick’s Day 1932, by Fr. Patrick Whitney, a priest from the Diocese of Ardagh and Clonmacmacnois. Since then, many Kiltegan priests, together with volunteer priests and; lay people from different Irish Dioceses, including Kerry have worked in Nigeria, and later in Kenya, Central and South Africa, Brazil and the West Indies. Today there are 223 Kiltegan priests of whom 40 are African. They have 58 students in Africa preparing for priesthood. The seed sown by the Irish Church has grown in surprising ways. We welcome Fr. Tim home and we are delighted that he will be joining us. His Mission Appeal will ask for your continued support for the Society’s missionary works, through enrolling in their Missionary Circle, subscribing to the ‘Africa’ magazine or supporting other initiatives.
TO AVOID THE DISAPPOINTMENT All mass intentions, have to be booked from now on at least a week before as the newsletter is a week ahead. Also, with more intentions happening each day the maximum number of names that can be given into one intention is four names. Thanks for your co-operation.

Just a Thought
This weekend – July 29th we celebrate the Feasts of St. Martha, Mary & Lazarus. The story of Martha and Mary is one of the better known Gospel stories. Martha and Mary were both good friends of Jesus. It was Martha who invited Jesus, but it is Mary who made him feel at home. It was Mary who understood that there is more to friendship than just doing things for someone else. Mary was in touch with the need of people to be accepted for who they are, to share their fears, and anxieties and their hopes and joys with someone else. All of us have that need. But not all of us meet that need. Mary did so particularly well. Trying to get the balance between Martha and Mary is the invitation. The rewards are great if we can try to get close.

Through you the Eternal Son,
And you, Spirit of Both,
Thrice blessed, three in one,
All glory to the Father, Son,

UPDATE ON THE IRISH SYNODAL PATHWAY
This Sunday June 5th (Pentecost Sunday) has been designated as a Day of Prayer in Thanksgiving for the Diocesan Phase of the Universal Synod. On 10 March 2021, the Irish Catholic Bishops’ Conference announced a new Synodal Pathway for the Catholic Church in Ireland leading to the holding of a National Synodal Assembly or Assemblies within the next five years.
This process has been focusing on the question:
What does God want from the Church in Ireland at this time?
More details on www.synod.ie The term synod comes from the Greek for ‘together on the way’. Synodality is a way of being Church, it is a spiritual practice and not just a debate about how the church is organised. It is intended to facilitate a wide-ranging process of reflection and discernment. All the faithful are invited to take part in the Synodal Pathway. Recently we had own gathering for Listowel Pastoral Area. Each Diocese is now submitting a document on the findings nationally. A National Pre Synodal-Assembly will take place in Athlone on Saturday, 18th June with a closing liturgy, before the final submission is sent to the Vatican.
ADORATION OF THE BLESSED SACRAMENT takes place every Wednesday straight after 10.30am. Mass until 1.00 p.m. new adorers welcome from 12 noon to 1pm. There will be a Donations box half way up the church.
CORPUS CHRISTI PROCESSION 2022: on Saturday, 18th June at 7.00 p.m. immediately after the Vigil Mass of the Feast of Corpus Christi. It will start from the church and go down the Square – up William Street – over Charles Street – down Courthouse Road – and return to church via Church Street. Everyone is most welcome to join us. A special welcome to all of our First Holy Communion children – from our four Primary Schools. We ask them to dress up in their First Holy Communion clothes. It will be led by the cross bearer, the general congregation, the children and then the Blessed Sacrament.
LISTOWEL PARISH CEMETERY MASSES 2022: will take place on: Tuesday - June 21st – St. Michael’s Cemetery at 8.00 p.m. There will be no chairs put out this year at the mass. So please bring your own.

Tune my spirit to the music of heaven, and somehow,
Make my obedience count for You. Amen.

DIOCESAN CHRISM MASS It is hoped to have our usual Chrism Mass during Holy Week on Tuesday evening April 12th in the Cathedral at 7.00 p.m. It is one of the most solemn and important liturgies of the year. The Mass is a celebration of the institution of the priesthood with Jesus' words at the Last Supper, "Do this in memory of me." During the Mass, those present are called to renew their baptismal promises; priests/ministers and deacons also reaffirm their ministry by renewing the promises made at their ordination. Blessing of the holy oils used in the sacraments throughout the year, which are then given to priests to take back to their parishes is a sign of each parish's unity with the Bishop and the diocesan Church.
Whenever the holy oils are used, the ministry of the bishop who consecrated them is symbolically present. There are no refreshments this year due to Covid.

On May 8, they saw floating seaweed and birds, and then spotted land. But they had arrived at South Georgia amid a hurricane, and for two days had to fight being driven by wind onto an island they had spent weeks desperately trying to reach.
Finally, they came ashore. Three of the six men, including Worsley, hiked across unmapped mountains and glaciers to reach a small settlement. Worsley joined a rescue boat back to get the other three. Shackleton later arranged a ship to collect the rest of the men from Elephant Island, all of whom had survived their own unimaginable hardships.

ARDFERT RETREAT CENTRE: As a result of Covid-19 it was not possible to run any retreat or residential programmes in the Ardfert Retreat Centre. In August 2020 and following a request from Talbot Grove (now The Grove), Castleisland, a lease was entered into with them for the use of Ardfert Retreat Centre for an initial term of one year. The Grove has now approached the Diocese about acquiring Ardfert Retreat Centre. Following negotiations, the Diocese wishes to advise that it is proposed to sell the Ardfert Retreat Centre to the Grove. The Diocese has had a long association with Talbot Grove and their mission is compatible with the spirit of the Gospel. After many years great service, Sr. Elizabeth has retired as director of Ardfert Retreat Centre, and we wish to thank her and indeed her predecessors for their work in the Centre. We also wish to thank the various members of staff, volunteers and the contact people for their work and dedication down the years. Lastly, we thank the people of the Diocese and especially the people of Ardfert for their support of Ardfert Retreat Centre since it opened its doors in 1981. We would ask you to join with us in wishing all in The Grove every success as a new chapter opens in the life of Ardfert Retreat Centre. Diocese of Kerry, February 2022

COVID-19 UPDATE – ST. MARY’S CHURCH, LISTOWEL
We are glad to be able to announce that here in St. Mary’s Church, we are starting the process of returning to how we operated before the pandemic, now that some of the restrictions have been removed. In doing so we are mindful that there are people who will be nervous about returning to Mass and public worship. For that reason, we will proceed with care and caution.
Over the next few weeks there will be the gradual return of the following, namely:
• The return to use of collection baskets
• The return of altar servers.
• The return to the use of Holy Water fonts.
• We are delighted with the return of our Parish Folk Group
At the end of February, it is expected that there will be a further Government announcement in relation to the easing and, perhaps, the removal of the remaining public health measures. In the meantime, we would ask you to please note the following requirements when attending St. Mary’s Church:-
• Please sanitise your hands on entering and leaving the church.
• Face masks or coverings should be worn.
• Holy Communion will continue to be distributed in the hand and not on the tongue. Please take your time in coming forward to receive Holy Communion. Be mindful of those around you and be respectful of their space. Maintain distance between you and those in front of you.
As we return to some form of normality, we wish to let you know that our ushers have now stepped down from their roles. We wish to thank our ushers and indeed all of our volunteers who assisted us, in whatever role, in ensuring compliance with the Covid requirements. We also wish to thank you for your support and generosity towards your Parish and clergy. For those who may be nervous about returning to Mass, you can still make your weekly offering or donation in the collection box at the back of the church, through the Parish Office, by standing order, or online. Full details can be found on the Parish website, www.listowelparish.com or by contacting the Parish Office at 068 21188. Please note that the pandemic is still not over. It is important that we continue to follow the public health advice. You can keep up to date with the public health advice by visiting the Government website at www.gov.ie and the HSE website at www.hse.ie.

SAFEGUARDING SUNDAY: MESSAGE ON BEHALF OF THE DIOCESAN SAFEGUARDING COMMITTEE
During the summer of 2021 an audit of safeguarding practice in the diocese was carried out by the National Board for Safeguarding Children. The purpose of this audit was to assess safeguarding procedures as outlined in our policy. The Safeguarding Committee would like to acknowledge and thank all who took part. It was very evident that there is a strong safeguarding culture in our parishes and the high level of commitment by all involved was recognised. The full report will be published and available in the coming weeks. Anyone who would like to report a current or past safeguarding concern is advised to contact the Designated Liaison Person for the Diocese on 087 6362780. People can also contact Towards Healing, an independent organisation offering confidential counselling for people who have experienced institutional, clerical or religious abuse. This is a free service funded by the Church. Website: http://www.toward healing.ie/ Phone number: 1800303416.
COVID-19 UPDATE – ST. MARY’S CHURCH, LISTOWEL
As and from 6.00 a.m. on Saturday January 22nd, 2022 the Government removed most of the public health measures that had been in place. Some public health measures, such as the wearing of face masks, remain in place until February 28th, 2022. We are glad to be able to announce that here in St. Mary’s Church, we are starting the process of returning to how we operated before the pandemic. In doing so we are mindful that there are people who will be nervous about returning to Mass and public worship. For that reason, we will proceed with care and caution. Over the next few weeks there will be the gradual return of the following, namely, the return to use of collection baskets, the return of the choir and folk group, and the return of altar servers.
We will look at the return to use of Holy Water fonts at the end of February, when it is expected that there will be a further Government announcement in relation to the easing and, perhaps, the removal of the remaining public health measures. In the meantime, we would ask you to please note the following requirements when attending St. Mary’s Church:- Please sanitise your hands on entering and leaving the church. Face masks or coverings should be worn. Holy Communion will continue to be distributed in the hand and not on the tongue. Please take your time in coming forward to receive Holy Communion. Be mindful of those around you and be respectful of their space. Maintain distance between you and those in front of you.
As we return to some form of normality, we wish to let you know that our ushers will now be stepping down from their roles. We wish to thank our ushers and indeed all of our volunteers who assisted us, in whatever role, in ensuring compliance with the Covid requirements. We also wish to thank you for your support and generosity towards your Parish and clergy. For those who may be nervous about returning to Mass, you can still make your weekly offering or donation in the collection box at the back of the church, through the Parish Office, by standing order, or online. Full details can be found on the Parish website, www.listowelparish.com or by contacting the Parish Office at 068 21188. Please note that the pandemic is still not over. It is important that we continue to follow the public health advice. You can keep up to date with the public health advice by visiting the Government website at www.gov.ie and the HSE website at www.hse.ie.

For whatever reason, we have partly lost the habit of joining together especially in the Gloria, Creed, and great Amen.

You may also use the system of paying your donation online / direct debit or standing order through the Parish Office. Mile Buíochas to you for your generosity and continued support of your Parish and clergy. Further details are available on the Parish website. God Bless.
COVID UP-DATE: Now that the Omicron numbers seems to have peaked, we now look forward with hope to getting back to a little bit of normality with the lifting of some of the restrictions. However, we must continue to be aware of the Covid guidelines from the Diocese of Kerry on the Poster on the Church gates. Please adhere to all the protective measures so that we are all safe and protected. Thanks
TO AVOID THE DISAPPOINTMENT All mass intentions, have to be booked from now on at least a week before as the newsletter is a week ahead to let people know whose mass is coming up so they can attend. It is also to stop mistakes happening in the admin side and to avoid upset and disappointment. Also, with more intentions happening each day the maximum number of names that can be given into one intention is four names. Thanks for your co-operation.
Just a Thought
We are already more than half way through the month of January, so it is appropriate that we check in on ourselves and reflect the following prayer of our New Year of 2022.
‘Loving God, thank you for this New Year. It is a time of new beginnings and a time too for letting go of old stuff that I don't need to carry forward in my life. As we all know new year resolutions come and go but your love for me is everlasting and it is constantly steady. During these difficult times, may I be a person of light, hope and love. May I have the strength and courage to be myself and to welcome each day as a new beginning. May I be kind to others, but particularly may I be kind and gentle with myself. Loving God, as we continue this new year with hope and perhaps some anxiety, may we find your compassion, healing and strength. Give us breath and depth to everything we do. In a world where many things are trivial and shallow, give me something more constant and meaningful. Finally, bless me, my family and those special in my life. May 2022 be filled with peace, blessings and love. Amen’

Accordingly, religious services and weddings can proceed without capacity limits and without any time restrictions but with all other protective measures in place and these measures include, sanitising your hands on entering and leaving the church, wearing a face mask or covering while visiting the church and observing the rules of social distancing.
A face mask or covering should be worn by all those aged 9 or over. People who may not be able to wear a face mask or covering for whatever reason or people who may be nervous about returning to Mass can participate in the Mass online at www.listowelparish.com.
A team of ushers will be on duty for all of our Masses. The ushers are there to assist people attending Mass, to assist in the distribution of Holy Communion, to organise the exit from the church at the end of Mass and to encourage people to comply with the public health protective measures. All of our ushers are volunteers, and we would ask people to co-operate with our ushers. Full details of our Mass schedule, including the Christmas Mass schedule can be found in the parish newsletter available at the back of the church or on our website, www.listowelparish.com.

Also, with more intentions happening each day the maximum number of names that can be given into one intention is four names. Thanks for your co-operation.
COVID UP-DATE: With the surge in numbers in recent times with the new variant of Omicron, we bring to your attention the latest Covid Update guidelines from the Diocese of Kerry on the Poster on the Church Gates. Please adhere to all the protective measures so that we are all safe and protected.
