THE NEW INN ALTAR SOCIETY
is holding their annual collection on Sunday, March 10. As you do for the weekly offertory collection, please make your donation using the envelopes marked New Inn Altar Society Annual Collection 2024 which are available in New Inn Church. Please return these envelopes when the collection is taken at 11:30 a.m. Mass on Sunday, March 10. The New Inn Altar Society is a voluntary group of just seven members who maintain the Church all year round and prepare it for special occasions like Christmas, Easter, Communions, and Confirmations. The Society has not held a fundraiser for six years for a variety of reasons. Members have therefore had to spend their own money on flowers, Altar candles, Christmas decorations, etc, in order to maintain the high standard that we have become accustomed to. Please give what you can. Your support is greatly appreciated. New Inn/Knockgraffon Parish Pastoral Council.
