Welcome to Killanne Union of Parishes

On Sunday 30th August we shall have a United Family Service in Killegney Church at 10.00am. This will be a special ‘Back to School’ service at which we shall especially remember and pray for all children and young people as they begin a new school year. The service will include a ‘Blessing of the Backpacks’, so all children and young people are asked to bring their backpack/schoolbag/sports bag along to church with them.

We extend our congratulations to Ruby and Robbie Watchorn on becoming grandparents recently, and to Brian Watchorn and Saoirse Dignam on the birth of their son Arlo. We wish them all every blessing.

Select Vestry Meeting - Thank you to all for attending the most recent Select Vestry meeting and for the important work that you do. The next meeting will be held on Thursday, the 10th of September.

‘Voices of Killanne’ preserving local knowledge through community voices - An oral history presentation – in Rackard’s Bar, Killanne on Sunday 16th August 2026 at 8.30pm.

Parish Sustentation - Sustentation is now due. Sustentation is an important part of supporting the ongoing life and ministry of our parish, helping with the regular costs of maintaining our church, worship, pastoral care, and parish activities.
