Requiescat In Pace
The parish was saddened to learn of the death of our beloved Ballybrown Church sacristan, Pat Gallagher on Saturday June 24th last.
Pat became sacristan in 2006, following the retirement of Dina Fitzgerald (R.I.P.) and his long and devoted service was recognised by Pope Francis last October when Pat was awarded the Benemerenti Medal. Pat was a lifelong member of the PTAA Pioneers and he served as President of the Ballybrown branch since 2003. He was also influential in setting up MPCC Credit Union in 1982.
We offer our sincere condolences to his wife Marie, daughters Marion (Bedford) and Geraldine (Walsh), grandchildren, sisters and extended family together with many relatives and friends both in this parish and in his native Derry.
May he rest in peace.

An Act of Spiritual Communion
My Jesus,
I believe that You are present in the Most Holy Sacrament.
I love You above all things,
and I desire to receive You into my soul.
Since I cannot at this moment receive You sacramentally,
come now spiritually into my heart.
I embrace You as if You were already there
and unite myself wholly to You.
Never permit me to be separated from You.
Amen.
