A Lenten Prayer
Heavenly Father, this Lent we ask your grace.
To fast from judging others and
feast on what makes them special,
To fast from unkind words and feast on kindness,
To fast from jealousy
and feast…
Welcome to our Parish
Welcome to the parish of Clane & Rathcoffey. We are an ever growing community here in North Kildare, Ireland. We seek to journey together and accompany each other at all moments of life’s journey responding to our Christian calling to love God and our neighbour. Our two beautiful churches are places of prayer, reflection and hope. Our Parish Centre, hall and Catholic Schools are places of learning, growth and community building.
We welcome you to join us in prayer and to volunteer with our many parish groups. Our parish website and Web Camera keep us connected daily to a wider community and world. Welcome to our parish family here in Clane and Rathcoffey.

Prayer to St Brigid of Kildare
1st February, 2021
Oh Brigid, Mary of the Gael,
may your protection never fail.
Spread your mantle over me,
where ‘ere I am, where ‘ere I be.
Cover me with God’s joy and peace,
let my faith and hope never cease.
Shine your light
where there is darkness,
…January 29, 2021
When evil darkens our world, give us light.
When despair numbs our souls, give us hope.
When we stumble and fall, lift us up.
When doubts assail us, give us faith.
When nothing seems sure, give us trust.
When ideals fade, give us vision.
When we lose our way, be our guide!
That we may…
When God

When God pushes you to the edge of difficulty,
trust him fully,
either he will catch you when you fall
or he will teach you how to fly.
Amen!
