Welcome to Killanne Union of Parishes

Select Vestry Meeting - The next meeting will be held on Tuesday, the 22nd of September.

We extend our sympathy to the family and friends of Clodagh Deacon who has died in England. Her remains will be buried in Killegney Churchyard – details will be announced during the week.

We extend our heartfelt congratulations to Canon Trevor Sargent, on his appointment as Rector of the Parish of St. Ann's Church, Dawson St. with St Mark's and St Stephen in Dublin. Whilst the news came as quite a shock to everyone in

Bunclody and the Diocese of Ferns, we wish him and Áine every blessing as they prepare for a new phase of ministry.

The New Ross Piano Festival takes place next weekend, with St. Mary’s Church being the main venue for most concerts. Details and booking information can be found at

The Morris family would like to express their sincere thanks to everyone who helped with George Jeacle’s funeral service and the refreshments afterwards, and to all who supported the family in any way. Your kindness was very much appreciated.

We extend out thanks to Mynie Leech who will take the services on Sunday, 27th September, as Revd. Arthur will be in the New Ross Union of Parishes.

We are looking forward to welcoming our guest speakers at our Harvest Services:

Parish Sustentation - Sustentation is now due.
