Magheracloone Parish ‘Mission of Hope’ takes place from Wednesday 12th November until Sunday 16th November 2025. Fr Ben Hughes UCG will lead the mission. There will be morning Mass at 9.30am and an evening Liturgy at 7pm each evening alternating between both Churches daily. The mission offers the opportunity to rediscover how best to live your precious life with purpose. The mission will include inspiring messages of hope, healing and encouragement. The mission is open to people who attend church regularly, and a special welcome is extended to those who have not been able to attend church recently. There will be a message of Hope and Healing for Everyone. Throughout the mission we will prayerfully explore how best to manage the inevitable challenges of life so that you can live our one precious life with hope, joy, and happiness, as Christ desires for all of us. The mission will include something for everyone such as Daily Mass, a Service of Eucharistic Healing, School Masses, Eucharistic Adoration, Benediction, Youth Liturgies, a Service of Reconciliation, the Anointing of the Sick and a Special Liturgy every evening at 7pm. The mission is based on the values of the Gospel and the example of Christ. More details over the next few weeks.
‘MISSION OF HOPE PRAYER’
Father, God of all creation, we give you thanks for your many blessings.
Be with our community at this time as we prepare for our parish mission.
Bless us with the gift of your Holy Spirit. Enable us to hear, receive and live by your word.
May our hearts and minds be renewed by the truth of your living presence.
Bless our parish at this special time of renewal and may each be refreshed through your many gifts.
We make this prayer through the intercession of Mary, the mother of God, saints Peter, Paul, Patrick and all your saints through Christ Our Lord.  AMEN.
Please pray for James Ward, Corkeeran whose funeral took place during the week. May he rest in peace.
