From Sunday 24th April, 2022, Cooneen’s services will begin at 9.30am on
the 1st, 2nd and 4th Sundays. Colebrooke's services on those same Sundays will begin at 11.00am. When the churches combine for Family Services, or other special occasions, the services will begin at 10.30am. During the summer months the services will alternate as in past years, but will begin at 10.30am each Sunday. These changes will hopefully allow a greater number of parishioners to worship weekly in Cooneen, and have been approved by both Select Vestries and the Bishop of Clogher. I plan to take holidays from 12th August - 12th September.
Canon Peter Wilson 02889521882 will cover any emergencies from 12th to 19th August. Canon Maurice Armstrong 02889541232 will cover from 20th August to 12th September. The church wardens also have details of those providing service cover. Thank you to Peter & Maurice, and also Joy and Ellen for services.
