    Sunday services

    Normal schedule of services has resumed. On the 4th Sunday of each month we will have a United Service, which will rotate around the four churches. We hope to encourage parishioners to come together in worship, at least once a month, and enjoy fellowship over a cup of tea or coffee after each of these services.

    Contacting the Rector/Pastoral Care

    The Rector is pleased to announce that the original phone number of the Rectory has been reinstated. So you may contact Rev. Arthur on 053 9244180, or by email at killannerector@gmail.com. If you would like the Rector to call, or you know someone who would like a home visit, or receive Holy Communion at home, please do let him know.

    Share your photos!

    If you have photos which you're happy to share (and us to use!) -- of parishioners (get their okay), parish events, farming, the churches or local scenery -- please send them to Teri Morris at hello@impulsehub.ie. By sharing your images, you help make our content more relevant, inclusive, and personal, so it truly feels like it belongs to all of us. Your contributions are much appreciated.

  • Sunday Services

    We usually have two services in our Union of Parishes every Sunday – these rotate between Rossdroit and Killanne, and Killegney and Templeshanbo. Each parish church has two services per month. When there is a 5th Sunday in the month, we have a United Service for all parishes, and this is the only service in the Union on that Sunday. But sometimes this rota can change, so do check the website regularly to confirm the up-coming services!
