Greetings from Fr. Matt
Hope you are all well. I was transferred to a different parish at the end of January last, and this time they talked me into being Parish Priest again. I had escaped from that job for the past ten or fifteen years ! And now they caught me again.
Am just back after a fabulous Holy Week in the interior of the Parish. I was out on the island of the Canárias with a group of local lay missionaries visiting the homes and celebrating with the people. Its a very sandy island so I had to travel a bit by foot to get to the communities, a good bit by boat and I even got back to ride the horse a few times also…. and finally I even got back to using the Mule and car to get from one place to another…reminding me of the time when I used to take the Milk down to Currabaha and Templederry Creamery.
Had great Holy Week Liturgies with the local people who found it all very interesting that the new PP would leave the parish church on Holy Week to be with them on their Island. It was all a very enjoyable experience. The younger Brasilian confreres who live with me, visited other communities and looked after the parish church..
Look up Ilha das Canárias, Maranhao, Brasil in your computer and you´ll see one of the most beautiful places in the whole of Brasil which is only about two hours by boat frm my present Parish House of Araioses.
Easter Sunday Cake Sale
Parents Association of St. Therese’s N.S. held a cake sale on Easter Sunday last in the community centre. We would like to thank everybody who donated cakes, buns etc for the sale and to all that purchased our goods. It was a great success and raised €756 for the school. So make a note in your diary Easter Sunday 2013 CAKE SALE. Thanks again.

Congratulations to Will on winning the Easter Cake in a raffle at the Parents Association of St.Therese’s N.S. cake sale. The event was such a great success it has been decided to make it an annual event. This beautiful cake was made and donated by Catherine Ryan of Main street (a past pupil of the school and aunt of Melissa in 2nd class). Many thanks to Catherine and enjoy to Will and family.
Senior Hurling: We had a good win over Moneygall last Sunday. The work rate by the team was vital in this match and also the passing movements were very good. Next Sunday we play Nenagh in Toomevara at 3pm. Your support would be appreciated.
Minor Football: Kiladangan defeated us by three points. This was a good display by all players.

The second league match of the season was held in the park on Tuesday 10th April at 6.30 pm. Drom was our opposition. It was a very tough game and unfortunately things didn’t go our way three of our players had to be taken off injured. Our total of six points were the result of frees in the first half. There was only three points in the difference at half time but Drom pulled away from us in the second half. The final score was 0-6 to 3-9. We wish our injured players a speedy recovery.
