Let us turn hope into action.” ( Raising Hope conference )

Church Raffle on 21st December. Donations of prizes would be great fully appreciated.  Bakers Pedestrian Right of WayThe right of way through Bakers to the church grounds has been a matter of discussion with the builder since the development commenced a few months ago.During construction, the builder from a risk and security point of view intended to close off the right of way for the duration of the build. It was recognised by the builder and the parish that this would cause inconvenience to many parishioners who use this passageway daily. An alternative route through the old Garda Station has been investigated by the builder with DLR, the owners of the Garda Station. While a route has been identified and is physically possible the builder’s request. In the meantime, the builder cleaned up the right of way and cordoned it off for continued use on a temporary basis. As the development will cross over into the area of the right of way for services and other works, it will be closed off in time, possibly around the end of February ’26, or maybe sooner should issues arise
