Summer Dues

Summer Dues Envelopes available in the Church Porches of all three Churches.

The annual Summer Dues Collection has begun. The Summer Dues collection goes to the Common Fund, which provides the salaries of the priests of the diocese. The Common Fund was under great pressure in the aftermath of COVID, so thank you for your generosity to the Common Fund since then. If you include your name and address on the envelope, it may help with claiming a tax refund from the Revenue Commissioners.
