Masses for the Newly Baptised

14th June 2016 by Editor

Masses for the Newly Baptised

On the weekend of the 11th and 12th of June 2016, special Masses Of Blessings were said in Boherlahan and Dualla churches for all the newly baptised children and their parents of the last two years. The event was organised by the priests of the parish and the members of the parish Pastoral and Liturgy Group. There was a great response to the invitations which were issued.


Candles were lit for each child to represent the light of faith which parents and the community pass on to the young people. The names of all the newly baptised were read out. The parents received a special Mass of Blessings card, which they were invited to complete at home with their child’s name along with their hopes and prayers for the child. Then the parents received a blessing to assist them, and the congregation affirmed their support.

Some of the new parents, along with other parishioners, were involved in the celebration of the Masses. Leaflets entitled “The Joy of New Life”, the candles, and other mementoes were distributed to the families. The occasion was greatly appreciated and admired by the congregation, and the parents of the newly baptised had the opportunity to meet with each other.
