SUMMERTIME ~ 14th June 2026

Published on June 12, 2026

SummertimePlease God, we will have some better days ahead in June and into the summer.  We are very grateful to those who joined in the 100th Cork Eucharistic Procession last Sunday in very wet conditions.  Despite the dreadful weather, there was a fine attendance, and it was good to see our Blackrock parish banner prominent on the day.  The Eucharist holds us together as a parish faith community.  We are privileged to have the gift of the Eucharist in our church and parish.  We never take this grace and blessing for granted.  St. Michael, pray for us.  – Fr. Michael
