NEW ARRANGEMENTS FOR NEW INN & KNOCKGRAFFON PARISH.
As people may be aware, due to the shortage of priests in our Archdiocese, Parishes are being clustered together. New Inn & Knockgraffon will be joined with Cashel Rosegreen, Golden Kilfeacle, Knockavilla Donaskeigh and Clerihan. The number of masses will also change in the cluster. New Inn along with Cashel and Golden will lose a mass with New Inn losing Saturday mass. We keep the two Sunday masses with the 11am mass going to 11.30 am. This will come into effect on the weekend of the 25th of November ’22. We still retain our P.P. and our parish status. However, we will have priests from the other Parishes saying our Parish Masses from January ‘23. Our P.P. will be covering the other parishes as well. Anyone who has masses booked for the Saturday nights from the 25th of November need to contact Fr Bobby (086) 1927455) to rearrange these masses. Unfortunately, this is a sign of the times, but we hope that this arrangement will work out for a long time. The following are the mass times in the different parishes
Saturday Vigil: Cashel 6.00pm, Golden 6.30pm, Donaskeigh 7.00pm, Clerihan 7.30pm
Sunday: Knockgraffon 9.30am, Kilfeacle 10.00am, Clerihan 10.00am, Rosegreen 10.30am, Knockavilla 11.00am, New Inn 11.30am, Cashel 12.00 noon.
