Kilrossanty Remembers

If, like me, you're not thriving in this heat and need somewhere cool to spend your break, may I suggest a churchyard...Rossmire COI gave me refuge from the scorching heat on my break, highly recommend it!

If you know of any graves in the area shown below, please contact Fr. Mark or a member of the parish council. If you cannot contact either for any reason, let me know and I will put you in touch. Thanks!

There will be a planned dig in the unused part of Kilrossanty graveyard during the coming weeks in order to establish if graves are present in this location.

There is a new category on the menu called Recommendations which is where I will post any events, locations or exhibitions which may be of local interest.
The first entry is about a new online exhibition called 'Waterford's Transported Convict Women' which was an eye-opener for me. Highly recommend you taking a look at it.
If you have any suggestions of places, exhibits or events - please message or comment and I will check them out!

Thanks to the Parish Council, there is a new page for parish news Kilrossanty & Fews Parish Notes. The newsletter and other announcements will be visible here each week, a very handy way to keep track of goings-on in the area.
Pop over and give it a follow, so you can stay in touch with parish life.
