Nowadays, the question of what it means to be a man can be perplexing, and to be a man of faith in Ireland today can be very difficult. Most men have a longing for the support and guidance of other men in their journey towards masculinity, maturity, and a deeper experience with the divine. Living a shallow unexamined life is an empty experience. Opening the door to this journey can start with the Men’s Rites of Passage (MROP), a five-day deeply spiritual experience that builds on the classic patterns of male initiation through profound rituals and teachings. It is the kind of experience that can help awaken men to the adventure and mystery of their own masculinity, their potential for leadership, and their life’s purpose.
Join with other men on this journey in Kiltegan, Co Wicklow,
23rd - 27th July 2025. For more information, go to https://www.malesireland.ie/rites-2/ or phone 086-2326988 or email Chris at RITEs2025Applications@malesireland.ie

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.

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.
