Alpha Courses

This course was designed to give people a chance to think about and learn about the Christian faith. It started in the U.K. and is now worldwide. It gives people who are not Christian and who are interested, an opportunity to consider what becoming a Christian involves. However it is very popular with people who want to look again at their beliefs - to understand them better. A course will be run in 2010. If you are interested contace Fr Joe Coyne or one of the neighbouring parishes.

The Parish team would like to thank Fr Tony Heerey for all the hard work he has put into our parish over the past nearly two years, and wish him all the best in the future.

We would also like to thank Fr Eugene Taaffe, former Parish Priest of Mulhuddart, who was Administrator of Hartstown Parish for a while. We wish Fr Eugene good luck in the future.
