Pastoral Policy for visitation of the sick The question has often been raised about visitation of the sick. The priest will only visit a sick person at the request of that person’s family This is out of respect for those who are ill and are recovering or undergoing long term treatment.  Fr Kieran or Fr Michael are happy to visit an ill person in their home. We will not arrive on a doorstep uninvited.
Magheracloone Seniors & Friends are holding their next social evening on Tuesday 24th March at 8pm. come along for a chat and cuppa.
