Significant repair and maintenance works are required across our three churches. Each church faces unique challenges that must be addressed urgently:

1. Kilmaley Church: following recent storm damage, several sections of the roof require repairalong with replacement of valleys which have deteriorated significantly overtime. Additionally, we need to install a disabled toilet to improve accessibility for all parishioners and visitors to the church.

2. Connolly Church: The roof needs a full replacement to prevent further deterioration and ensure the safety of our congregation.

3. Inch Church: This church experienced flooding during Christmas. Extensive work on the grounds has been carried out to prevent future occurrences, along with works inside the church to remove the water damage, which has incurred significant costs.

The total cost for these essential projects amounts to €150,000. While the parish has saved funds over the years with €100,000 available, this still leaves us with a shortfall of €50,000.

We are reaching out to you, our devoted parishioners, to ask for your generous support. Contributions of any size will collectively help us meet this financial challenge. Your donations will not only ensure the immediate safety and functionality of our churches but also future proof them for generations to come.

We understand that these are challenging times for many, but we believe that with collective effort and generosity, we can achieve this goal. As a community, we have always come together in times of need, and we are confident that we can do so once again.
