                                   Bishops' Appeal - Myanmar Earthquake

Following the devastating earthquake on 28th March in South East Asia in which over two thousand lives have been lost, the Bishops’ Appeal Advisory Committee sent emergency assistance of €10,000 (currently equivalent to £8,400) to Christian Aid’s appeal for Myanmar. During 2021, the Church of Ireland Bishops’ Appeal released funds to support Covid relief efforts in India and also in Haiti following a devastating earthquake.  And the crisis in Ukraine has displaced numerous refugees in need of support by relief agencies and the Bishops' Appeal seeks urgent donations to go towards such humanitarian work. Individuals and parishes are invited to contribute to support these and other efforts.   Taxpayers in the U.K. can give more help by “Gift Aiding” donations.
Envelopes are available in the porch.

The Dean Writes:

Dear Parishioners and Friends all around the world,

Time is moving at an extremely fast rate with half of this year already passed, and for us in the Northern Hemisphere,
now we are well into the summer months. The days are longer, the sun shines brighter (hopefully!), and nature
flourishes allaround us. Summer invites us to pause, reflect, and rejuvenate ourselves. It is a season that calls for rest
and renewal. For many, summer is synonymous with holidays and adventures, a time to escape the hustle and bustle of daily life. Families pack their bags, set off on journeys, and create lasting memories in new places. However, not all of us are fortunate enough to embark on these getaways. For those who may find themselves at home this summer, I want to encourage you: rest can be found right where you are.

In our fast-moving world, it is easy to become overwhelmed by our responsibilities and commitments. The demands of work, family, and daily life can leave us feeling drained. Yet, the Bible reminds us in Matthew 11: 28

‘Come to me, all you who are weary and are carrying heavy burdens, and I will give you rest.’

This invitation from Jesus is a profound reminder that true rest is found in Him — whether we are lounging by a pool-side or staying in the comfort of our own homes. Consider setting aside a few moments each day to reflect on the blessings in your life. This can shift our focus from what we lack to what we already possess, fostering a spirit of hope and contentment.

Summer also offers us a unique opportunity, now with better weather, to attend church (if you are able) and join within the church family. It is important that we keep those connections over the summer months and not just take a ‘holiday from church’. These times of fellowship can create lasting connections and offer a refreshing break from the routine. They are reminders that we are not alone on this journey of faith and that we can lift each other up in love and support.

For those of our congregation here in Enniskillen who may be facing challenges this season - be it bereavement, health issues, financial struggles, or emotional burdens - know that you are not forgotten. The church is here for you. Reach out to our parish for support, prayer, and encouragement. Together, we can bear one another’s burdens and reflect the love of Christ in tangible ways.

As we embrace the beauty of summer, let us also embrace the peace, hope, and rest that comes from our relationship with God. Whether we travel afar or stay close to home, may we find joy in the simple moments and trust in His unwavering presence in our lives. Wishing you all a summer filled with peace, reflection, and the joy of the Lord..

Yours very sincerely,
