Thanks to all who supported the Coffee Morning and Sale in the parish hall in Marmullane on Saturday. An amount of €900 was raised and all proceeds will go to the hall renovation fund.
A restoration of St. Luke’s Church Clock is being organised at present which will cost €3200 plus VAT. We have already received several generous donations but there still is a shortfall of €1200 remaining. It has been decided to launch a fundraising initiative where people could sponsor a minute in time on the clock face with a figure of €20 per minute. We would need 60 people to participate. If you would like to contribute please contact the Rectory for more information.
