  • Parish Notes

    Revd Arthur appointed Priest-in-Charge, New Ross Union of Parishes

    Bishop Adrian has appointed Rev Arthur as Priest-in-Charge of the New Ross Union of Parishes. This will mean that Rev Arthur has pastoral and administrative oversight of the parishes, will chair Vestry meetings, take services occasionally, and provide support and encouragement for the parishioners. Rev Arthur is still, first and foremost, incumbent of the Killanne Killegney Union of Parishes, and this new role will not diminish or hinder his ministry in our parishes.

    Parish Magazine News

    Notes and photos for the magazine should reach Margaret by the 6th of each month. These can be sent to killanneunion (at) gmail.com. There is no guarantee that late notes will be included.

    Sunday services

    On the 5th 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

    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!
