Many groups are involved in the life of our Church
Sacristans
The role of the Sacristan and those who attend to the work of the Sacristy is an important ministry in our parish. Our Sacristans not only assist the priest, but support the entire congregation to participate fully, consciously and actively in liturgical celebrations.
Our team of Sacristans play a crucial role in the “behind the scenes” work of preparing our church and ensure that everything is in place to celebrate the Mass. In our parish, with 4 churches, Mass is celebrated at different times on weekdays and on Sundays.
Our Sacristans are:
Curtlestown Norah Burton (01) 2829745
Enniskerry Sadie O’Connell (01)
Glencree Aidan Maher (01) 2861956
Kilmacanogue Breda Donnelly (01)
