Between February and May 2025, fifteen Families of Parishes in the diocese will host three one-and-a-half-hour sessions (one has already completed their sessions) focusing on these key themes:
- Week 1: Baptism: Gateway to the Faith Community
- Week 2: Eucharist: Nourishment for Mission
- Week 3: Review of the Families of Parishes
Dates are yet to be announced and the meetings in each family of parishes will include a number of parish representatives.
The next phase was discussed at a meeting attended by some Barryroe parishioners held at the Butlerstown Community Centre on Friday 3 January. The meeting was a relaying of what had happened at an informative regional meeting in Fernhill before Christmas at which Barryroe was very well represented by those in leadership positions in the parish.
The next phase consisting in the three meetings will focus on helping parish representatives be up-skilled and prepared for reflecting on the mission of the church in the present world, with the three topics given by Bishop Fintan.

The Relics of St. Bernadette of Lourdes are on pilgrimage in Ireland and will be in the Diocese of Cork and Ross from 30 October to 1 November
St. Bernadette witnessed eighteen apparitions of Our Lady at Lourdes in 1858 and countless millions of people have visited Lourdes since.
This visit of St. Bernadette’s relics will afford to the many people who can’t go to Lourdes an opportunity to be close to St. Bernadette and to Our Lady of Lourdes.
People will be able to venerate the relics at the Cathedral of St. Mary and St. Anne, Cork, and at the Church of the Immaculate Conception, Clonakilty.
