F2F Parent Support Evening Dates - South Dublin.pdfI hope this finds you and your parish community very well. I am writing to share with you that Anam Cara will be hosting an Online Bereavement Information Evening on Thursday 20th of November at 7pm for bereaved parents.
Niamh Fitzpatrick will be our guest speak for the evening, bringing together her personal experience of grief and her professional expertise as a psychotherapist. Niamh has degrees in Psychology, Clinical Psychology, and Sport Psychology and is a regular speaker with Zeminar, Shona.ie, Let’s Talk Mental Health at Work, Network Ireland, the Psychological Society of Ireland, and The Irish Hospice Foundation.
She will share her learnings and insights as she navigates her own experience of grief, having suffered a traumatic loss in March 2017, when her sister, Capt. Dara Fitzpatrick, was one of the four crew killed when Irish Coast Guard rescue helicopter Rescue 116 crashed while out on a mission. This session may be especially beneficial for parents seeking to understand their children's unique perspectives on grief, and those navigating traumatic or sudden losses.
If you would be so kind as to advertise this information in your parish notice board or bulletin.
Parents are also invited to register via this link:

PLANNED GIVING WEEKLY ENVELOPES
The Parish relies on the generosity of our Parishioners as the planned giving (Family offering) is the SOLE income which stays in the Parish for the day to day upkeep and running of our Churches - altar expenses, light & heat, wages, etc. If you are in a position to contribute to the planned giving, please contact our parish offices for a box of envelopes (which can be returned each weekend at mass). Every contribution is important to us, now matter how much you can give.You also have the option to pay online through EasyPayments on our parish website (www.bohernabreenaparish.com) or via monthly standing order. Forms are available from the parish offices and, due to lower bank costs, this would be our preferred option if possible. Please phone the parish office if you require any help or clarification on any of the above.Registered Charity No. 20016166

Prayer Before Holy Communion
– St. Thomas Aquinas
All powerful and everlasting God,
I ask that I might receive,
the Bread of Angels,
the King of Kings, the Lord of Lords,
with that reverence and humility,
with that contrition and devotion,
with that purity and faith which
is expedient for the salvation of
my soul. Amen.
Prayer after Holy Communion
– St Thomas Aquinas
Sweetest Jesus,
Body and Blood most holy,
be the delight and pleasure of my soul,
my strength and salvation
in all temptations,
my joy and peace in every trial,
my light and guide in every
word and deed,
and my final protection
in death. Amen.

150th Anniversary Book
St. Anne's Church
The St Anne’s Church Committee produced a wonderful book to commemorate this special year in our parish. It looks back on the history of St Anne’s, records the celebration events and also reflects on the future.
It contains lovely accounts, photos, drawings, poems by the children and many friends of St Anne’s and it is a truly valuable record of our community and heritage. Every household in the parish should have one. It only costs €10 and is available from the parish office at St Anne's Church.
We, the people of God in Bohernabreena Parish, who worship in St Anne's and Holy Rosary, guided by the Holy Spirit and inspired by the love of Jesus Christ, are committed to creating a caring, welcoming community where there is justice for all.
