Mary’s Meals: We began feeding 200 children in Malawi in 2002 and are now feeding 1,838,859 children every day in places of education. Our vision is that every hungry child receives a daily meal and that all who have more than they need, share with those who are in need. With our no frills policy, it costs with Mary's Meals €18.30 to give a child a meal every day for a full school year.
To raise funds and awareness of Mary's Meals, we are walking throughout Ireland. Walks are starting on 7 August from Kilkenny, Malin, Derry, Armagh, Dublin, and Limerick and are all arriving in Knock Co Mayo on 15 August (restriction permitting). Maybe you could get involved in Step by Step to Feed the Next Child. You are invited to visit our website www.marysmeals.ie For more information you can phone Fr Eamonn Kelly on 0879077985. We would also like to organise a local walk in your area. Sponsor cards and t-

Synod: Log onto the website www.kilmorediocese.ie to see the short video prepared by Bishop Martin Hayes on this world wide conversation regarding the future of our Church and issues related to our faith. If you have opinions you’d like to get heard, mention them to a Pastoral Council member or to Fr Tom for our next meeting.
Key questions for our Diocese;
1. How has faith helped you in your life?
2. How can the Church support and encourage more active participation?
3. How could the laity be listened to and be heard (especially women and young people)?
4. How, as a faith community, can we address issues that trouble our society? What is the Holy Spirit asking of us now?

Where possible shop local: If you spend local, you can rest assured that your money is benefiting the local economy. It will also reduce your carbon footprint and cut down on fuel consumption, air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions.
Reduce waste and boost recycling: Set yourself a challenge and refuse to buy products which are excessively packaged. Select products in bottles, cans, corrugated cardboard and other recyclable packaging materials.

Consider making a charity donation: Somewhere safe to sleep, a warm bed, a hot meal; these can be the most important things to someone.
The gift of an indoor living plant: A spider plant will absorb air pollutants in a room. It increases humidity, absorbs ozone, and is therapeutic. A snake plant in the bedroom traps toxins during the day and gives out oxygen at night. Both plants are low maintenance, effective against allergies and add life and colour to indoor spaces.
