Weekly Eucharistic Adoration
Morning and Evening Prayer
Monday evening Rosary for our young people. Are you concerned about reluctance of many young people to embrace the faith? If so, please join us on Monday evenings at 6.00 pm in Our Lady of Mount Carmel Church, Ballycullen Avenue, to pray the Rosary for this special intention. It will take only 15 minutes or so. All are welcome. (Please enter by the Parish Office Gate).
Weekday morning Rosary: After 10.00 am Mass each morning the Rosary is prayed by an ad-hoc group of parishioners at the back of the church. Anyone who would like to join in is very welcome.
Miraculous Medal Novena
Every Monday after 10.00 am Mass we have this short novena consisting of four special prayers and prayer for our own intentions.
Annual Bereavement Mass
The Annual Bereavement Support Mass in November each year is organised by the Bethany Bereavement Support Group.
Please click here for more information on the Bethany Bereavement Support Group.
Tuesday Morning Prayer Service
There is no Mass in the parish church on Tuesdays. Instead, we have a service provided by some of our Ministers of the Word and Ministers of the Eucharist. We are grateful to these volunteers for their willingness to provide this service. It has become a necessary but vital part of parish life.
The service consists of a penitential rite, reading of the word of God (scripture readings of the day), intercessory prayers and distribution of Holy Communion. No doubt, in future, we will need, and can expect to see further lay involvement in parish ministry.
