St
Joseph’s Young Priests’ Society
St Joseph’s
Young Priests’ was founded over 100 yrs ago to
help fund the education of young Irish students who
were studying for the priesthood. The society has given
many young men from impoverished homes who had a vocation,
the opportunity to do God’s work. The society
also assists overseas students. In 2007, for example
201 Irish & 690 overseas students received assistance
of nearly 2 million euro. Due to an extreme shortage
of priests and the recession in Ireland the society’s
work is still of great value. The Clones branch meet
on the last Tues of each month and collect an annual
subscription of €10 from many people in the parish.
A member of the branch will call with you over the coming
months. All who pay become members of the society. Please
pray forvocations. If interested in joining our branch,
contact Larry Butler 086 8342312.

Legion
of Mary
On Sept 7th 1921 Frank Duff founded the apostolic organisation
of The Legion of Mary. We have held the 35,73rd meeting
in Clones but new members are needed to continue this
work. Meetings take place on Wednesday nights @ 8pm
in Ionad Na nÓg.
The Church
Choir
The church choir and organ music has always been an
integral part of the 11.30am Masses, the Christmas Masses,
and the religious ceremonies held in the church throughout
the year. In recent years the senior choir takes part
in Saturday evening Mass, while the folk choir takes
part in the 11.30 Sunday Mass. Much justifiable praise
has been bestowed on the church choir. Perhaps the importance
and value of the choir is best illustrated by the awarding
of the Bene Merenti medal, on 16th
July 1968, to Peter MacCarney Snr., for his services
to the church. He had been conductor of Clones church
choir for some thirty years.
