Contact: Colm Madigan & Gerry Kerr Family Mass Group The Family Mass Group was formed to reach out to children and to engage their interest and attention at Mass. The Contact: Monica Carr Childrens Choir The Children’s Choir sings at the 10.30 a.m. Family Mass each Sunday. The children are part of the Family Mass Group, they practice on a Thursday afternoon between 4pm and 5pm. All children between the ages of 6 and 13 years are welcome to join. Contact: Sinead Harrington Family Offering Group The Family Offering Envelope Campaign was set up when Ballygall Parish was designated as a full parish. A box of envelopes was given to each family who wished to contribute to the upkeep of our then fledgling Parish. This was to provide a steady income to keep our Parish free from debt, and also, initially to save funds for our new Church. In 1988 our ‘New Church’ was completed and opened to much acclaim. Now our Family Offering contributions keep our Parish free from debt, help us to pay all our bills, and help us to save for all the big items that will be occurring now that our ‘New Church’ comes of age and will be in need of repair and refurbishment. Like all homes, God’s home has to be maintained and repaired when things go wrong. We couldn’t do this without our wonderful contributors and collectors. They go out in all kinds of weathers, and their ‘customers’ welcome them each week. We are always looking for new collectors, so if you would like to help, or if you are not contributing already and would like to do so contact the Sacristy. Contact: Joan Balfe

Ballygall Parish Adult Church choir was formed over 30 years ago. During this time the choir has sung a variety of Sacred Music, old and new, uplifting those in the congregation, who sometimes sing, sometimes listen, to feel that they are praising the Lord and enjoying doing so. The Choir is a mixed four part group. We rehearse every Wednesday at 7.30 in the Church and sing at Sunday Mass at 12 noon. New members are always welcome.
