BANTRY FAMILY OF PARISHES

Bantry, Caheragh, Goleen, Muintir Bhaire, Schull

We the Priests of the Bantry Family of Parishes would like to wish all of our parishioners, a very happy, holy, peaceful Christmas and a prosperous 2026. We are always mindful of those who are ill & those who are unable to travel home for the Christmas season. 

Please be assured of our prayers. 

Fr. Myles, Fr. Chris, 

Fr. Anthony,   Fr. Ben, Fr. John C.

“For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given” Isaiah 9:6

Christmas Offering Envelopes are at the doors of all Churches.
We thank you for your continuing support and generosity.

Collection for Priests: The collection on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day is for the priests of the parishes. The Bishop allows only two days in the year when the offertory collection is given to the Priests – Christmas and Easter. All other collections are for the running of the Parishes. These are all accounted for by the Parish Finance Committees and in turn sent to the Diocesan Accountant. We thank you for your great support and generosity.
