A Christmas Wish:
"When the song of the angels is stilled, when the star in the sky is gone, when the kings and princes are home, when the shepherds are back with the flocks, then the work of Christmas begins: to find the lost, to heal those broken in spirit, to feed the hungry, to release the oppressed, to rebuild the nations, to bring peace among all peoples, to make a little music with the heart… And to radiate the Light of Christ, every day, in every way, in all that we do and in all that we say. Then the work of Christmas begins.”
Aughanagh Parish Council would like to thank you for all your help and assistance throughout 2008
A Very Peaceful and Blessed Christmas to you all.

Carol Service:
Congratulations to all who organized, supported, participated and attended our Parish Carol Serivce and refreshments on Friday evening.

Thanks also to all those who have prepared our churches and liturgies for the Christmas Season.

Clergy Salary Collection
You may have noticed that there are a number of blue envelopes in your box. These envelopes are marked Priests Christmas Collection and are used for the clergy Salary Collection. . Each priest in the diocese is paid a salary by the parish he is appointed to. Despite popular belief this monthly salary is dependent, not on the weekly collection, but on four collections a year; Christmas, Easter, Pentecost and November. These four collections are supplemented by the Station mass collections. On Christmas Eve /Day please use the blue envelope marked Priest's Christmas Collection. Thank you for your generosity

Refurbishment Collection:
The refurbishment collection will be taken up next weekend 27th / 28th December. Your ongoing generosity has made it possible for so many projects to be completed this past year . Please use the yellow and white envelope in your box next Sunday. Please complete your tax rebate form and return it to Fr. Ian as soon as possible.
