Doorus Cemetery Mass 2024
Mass was celebrated in Doorus Cemetery on 26th July 2024, offered for those buried in the cemetery. The weather was in the balance but it was still possible to go ahead with Mass in the cemetery.
Thanks to Thomas Kavanagh and the Cemetery Committee for the practical preparations for the Mass and for their dedication to the upkeep of the cemetery all year round. Thanks also to the sacristy team, the Altar Servers, and to the Parish Choir for your dedication. Thanks to Mary O’Donnell for photos.
For those buried in Doorus Cemetery: May their souls, and the souls of all the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace.

Doorus Cemetery Mass 2024
Mass will be celebrated in Doorus Cemetery, Kinvara, this Friday 26th July 2024 at 7pm, offered for those who are buried in the cemetery. All will be welcome. Thank you to those making the preparations for the Mass.
If the weather is inclement, the Mass would move to Doorus Church, beside the cemetery, and an announcement would be made beforehand on the parish Facebook page.
Drumacoo Cemetery Mass 2024
Unfortunately, the evening was wet on Friday 19th July 2024, so the Drumacoo Cemetery Mass moved to Ballinderreen Church, with a large congregation praying for those buried in the cemetery. The Mass was also offered for those buried in other cemeteries in Ballinderreen Parish.
Many people went over to Drumacoo Cemetery then after the Mass for the blessing of the graves.
Compliments to the Drumacoo Cemetery committee for their care for the cemetery all year round, and for keeping it so beautifully.
Drumacoo Cemetery Mass: Update
Unfortunately, the weather forecasts are predicting rain at various stages of the evening, so the Mass will now be moved to Ballinderreen Church instead. It will start at 7.10pm, rather than 7, to allow anybody who had gone to the cemetery, to get over to the Church.
Fr Hugh will still go to the cemetery for the blessing of the graves after the Mass, so those who don’t mind the rain and would like to be at your family grave for the blessing are welcome to go over to Drumacoo after the Mass. (Friday 19th July 2024)
