Hall Updates As I write the situation is quite fluid but we anticipate that in the next weeks both Tomregan hall and Newtowngore Hall will begin very necessary and welcome building works. The builder will be taking control of Tomregan hall a few days after publishing this. The hall will therefore be unavailable for our use. Newtowngore are finalising the choice of builder and work will hopefully start in October. This will all obviously effect where we are able to hold things over the coming term. Many thanks to all those who are busy working away behind the scenes to make this all happen. The church office will no longer operate from Tomregan hall and we are presently reviewing how we best operate in this regard. |

May we also gently remind members that membership fees are due at the meeting.. |

Cavan - Monaghan Leader (CML) intend to run a Care and Conservation of Historic Graveyards Training Course in September / October 2011. This practical training course is targeted at volunteers and community groups who are or may be considering maintaining and conserving the historic graveyards in their areas. The training course will consist of four evening sessions and two all day sessions. The venue (likely to be Cavan based) and study trip will be decided based on the location of participants. It may possibly be most beneficial if we are able to get representatives from Kildallon, Swanlinbar, Templeport and Tomregan along to this. If you might be interested please have a word with Richard urgently. |

Paraguay Book Richard has a book of photos from the summer visit to Beryl. It is not cheap (around €40) and is not a fundraising project. It is simply a powerful reminder of a most worthwhile trip As a couple of parishioners have expressed an interested in getting a copy we mention it. If interested please ask Richard who will gladly get one for you. |

The House of Peace is one of the largest voluntary sector orphanages in India; at present, there are about 1200 children receiving residential care, with a further 800 children supported in day-care settings.
