Farewell to Fr. Rafal Siwek: Last weekend the parish of Killann bid farewell to Fr. Rafal Siwek. Fr. Rafal has been a curate in the parish of Killann sine September 2019 mainly based in Shercock. In the short time that he has been in the parish, Fr. Rafal has endeared himself to young and old by his friendly, outgoing nature and by the spiritual care he has provided in the Shercock and Killann area. He very quickly integrated into the community and during the height of the pandemic, Fr. Rafal put into place a radio system in Shercock. Many people really enjoyed and drew comfort from the evening Prayer Services, he broadcast over the radio system including the ‘celebrity’ guest interviews!

Fr. Rafal is returning to his native Poland to tend to his elderly father. He has worked in the Kilmore Diocese for the past 13 years and he hopes to return to Kilmore in due course. The parish of Killann thanks Fr. Rafal for his service here and we wish him and his father every blessing in the years to come.

St. Annes:  We especially encourage our young families to get back into the habit of coming to Mass. It will do us a power of good to be together and to worship God together as a community of Faith.

Local landmark pub sold to County Council:  Sarah O’Reilly says, ‘It was an honour for me, as Cathaoirleach of Cavan County Council to sign a contract for the purchase of the former Town and Country Pub on Main Street, Bailieborough. It is hoped the purchase of this property will allow for the future expansion of the public car park to the rear of the building, creating the potential for future strategic revitalisation of the town core’.

“The purchase of the strategic town centre property will play a part in the sustainable growth of Bailieborough Town, which will ensure its future as a dynamic and thriving urban centre,” said Cllr O’Reilly.

“There has been a pause for a long time in further development of the back lands area Masterplan in the Bailieborough town – this is a serious effort by Cavan County Council to help resolve some of the issues and offers an opportunity for the businesses to improve access and parking in the area, I want to thank our MD area manager and staff and Director of services Paddy Connaughton for their work in making this a reality “

Bailieborough Shamrocks G.F.C. : It has been brought to the GAA Clubs attention that even though we have the Cheese Factory Car Park open for parking at Training Times, people are still parking up on the footpaths and blocking them by abandoning cars on same. This is not acceptable and all COACHES AND PARENTS are asked to follow the Club Instructions and park in the Cheese Factory Car Park. Lakeland Dairies have been very helpful allowing us use their grounds for parking as we continue works on our own Car Park. Wheelchair users and people out walking children in prams have been unable to use the public footpaths on both sides of the pitch gates as it has been impossible to pass cars that are on these footpaths.

Coaches Needed—Bailieboro Celtic : Have you ever thought about Coaching or wanted to help help out. Or stood on the sideline watching on and thought I could do better. Well now is your chance we need volunteers. The children need coaches, so that all teams have a chance to play and enjoy the game. All it will take to start is your time, the rest will come together and better still if you can get someone to join you to share the load.

St. Annes: It is great to see people back at Mass. There has been a lovely upbeat atmosphere since the restrictions were partially lifted. People are glad to be able to get out again, see old friends, have a chat, pray together as a community and receive the Eucharist.
St. Anne’s in Bailieborough is a large Church and under the restrictions, it will be able to accommodate up to 100 family units at the weekend. It is not intended to put a booking system in place because the management system worked well last Autumn/Winter, when the Church was last open.

Internal work has begun in St. Anne, Killann and it will remain closed for the next month or so.  The Killann Saturday Vigil Mass at 8.30pm is transferred to St. Patricks , Shercock.  A second Mass will be celebrated in Shercock on Sundays at 10.00am in addition to the 11.30am Mass. The extra Sunday Mass is a temporary measure and will be reviewed after a month. It is being introduced because St. Patrick’s is a smaller Church and Mass attendance is restricted to 50 people. The extra Mass is to facilitate the safe attendance of as many as possible.  There is no need to book a place. If the Church reaches capacity, people may listen to Mass in their cars on the radio system and receive Holy Communion outside.

The Bishop has reminded us, that the Sunday Mass obligation is still suspended. People who are nervous about returning to weekend Mass, might like to consider attending, a quieter weekday Mass as an alternative.

People are asked to co-operate with the ushers in each Church. People are also asked to respect the social distancing and to only sit in the seat assigned to you. You are asked to wear a mask and to sanitise on entering and exiting the building at the sanitising points. If you are feeling unwell, please stay at home.

It is good to be back. We especially encourage our young families to get back into the habit of coming to Mass. It will do us a power of good to be together and to worship God together as a community of Faith. Welcome back!!

Pat joined Cavan County Council in 1983 as a Craftworker in the Area Office in Bailieborough. He was promoted to a General Services Supervisor in 2005 following the retirement of his predecessor John Coyle.

A great fan of the Weather and Football he rarely misses a trip to Breffni Park. A man of many talents his Irish Dancing classes should prove worthwhile as Pat looks forward to enjoying the freedom to travel again with his beloved Marguerite and many friends.

Very Best Wishes Pat, it has been our pleasure to get to know you. Don’t be a stranger.
