Graveyard Masses: The Diocese of Kerry and Kerry County Council, have advised against celebrating Mass in cemeteries this year.  Therefore, Masses will be celebrated for loved ones buried in our Parish Cemeteries in Castleisland Parish Church and through live stream and radio. Please note that in relation to Cordal and Scartaglen, Castleisland Parish Church will be reserved for community congregations on their dates.  It is important also that Cordal and Scartaglen would bring their own announcer, reader and singer. It is important that all areas have a sense of ownership for their own celebration.

Graveyard Mass will be held in Castleisland Parish Church on the following dates:

• Wednesday 29 July at 7.30pm for Castleisland Graveyards
• Wednesday 5th August at 7.30pm for Scartaglen Graveyard
• Wednesday 12th August at 7.30pm for Cordal Graveyards

An application form can be downloaded from this site (see below). Please complete the application form, together with your childs birth certificate. The application form can be handed into the parish office during office hours. Occasionally we get a request as to what are the requirements for Godparents. The following are the diocesan guidelines. A godparent must be a baptised Catholic who is at least sixteen years old, has received the sacraments of Holy Eucharist and Confirmation, and is in good standing with the Catholic Church.  Most parents choose their children’s godparents because of a personal relationship. But “godparent” is not merely an honorary title we bestow because someone is a friend or because it’s a certain relative’s “turn.” A godparent is supposed to be involved in the faith formation of the child as a Catholic.
