2012 EUCHARISTIC CONGRESS ANTHEM
“ Though We Are Many ”
Chorus: Though we are many, we are one body,
we who come to share this living bread;
Cup of salvation, shared among all nations,
Nourishing us now and evermore.
1. We gather in this place round the table of the Lord.
Christ's presence is revealed
in our communion and his Living Word.
2. Now our communion recalls Christ's death and resurrection.
This living sacrifice is our salvation now and evermore.
3. And through this shared Eucharist we are the living Church,
We witness to Christ's love His living body active in our world.
4. This bread unites the baptized who are called to this great feast.
The feast, a sign of God's love, a great communion with the saints above.
5. And when we leave here today with hearts renewed in joy,
So nourished, we will embrace the challenge now to live the Christian call.
6. As Patrick prophet of old trod the path we tread today,
so we proclaim the Good News and share the living message with joy.
PARISH GRAVEYARDS COMMITTEE : The following were elected at the Annual General Meeting of Miltown Malbay Parish Graveyards Committee held recently. Chairman: Michael Hillery
Secretary: Eilish Reidy Treasurer: Bridie Cleary

During the past twelve months improvement works took place in all 6 graveyards. Funding for the improvements is realized from Church gate collections, grants from Clare Co. Council and donations. The committee plans for the next 12 months to lay more footpaths, erect a shrine at Ballard and repair the bridge at Kildimo with general maintenance at the rest of the burial grounds. Because of the reduction in grants the committee will rely more on donations from people who have graves in these graveyards which can be paid to Bridie Cleary, Ennistymon Road , Miltown Malbay.
