ENERAL / CHUR( [A] Today we begin the celebration of CatholicSchools Week™ an opportunity to acknowledge the great contribution that our Catholic Primary & Post Primary schools make to Irish society and Gospel values! We pray for our teachers, parents and parish, that under the guidance of the Holy Spirit, we may share the responsibility of furthering God's work. It's a time to say thanks for all who Nurture our Christian Faith and hand it on at home, in school and in the parish. Catholic Schools endeavour to be a light for parents, pupils, staff and society in every generation. [B] Diocese of Kilmore ~ Marriage Preparation Courses: It is Diocesan policy that each couple should attend an ACCORD Pre-Marriaqe Course. Facilitators giving these courses undergo continued in -service training and supervision. And the sacramental aspect of marriage receives appropriate attention. It is a wise practice to do a course up to a year before the date of your marriage. Doing a course only weeks before your wedding makes little sense! All couples are asked to note this request and make suitable & timely arrangements. Contact ACCORD in the Pastoral Centre, Cavan at 049 - 4375004 for courses available in the Diocese of Kilmore. Courses available monthly to May, plus October & November 2011. [C] St. Michael's Family Life Centre, Church Hill, Sligo: Excellent & varied day/evening courses available for the Soring / Summer 2O11 Programmes. For details telephone 071 - 9170329.
