Emly Festival
One of the main events this year is the Family Go cart competition. Families are asked to take on the challenge to build and create their very own pedal go carts. Your very own idea, and creation at home .
All participants will be asked to showcase their crafts at the parade on Sunday, July 14. More details to follow (please note this is not a go cart racing competition). It is a craft competition.
The school play is no longer taking place on Thursday, July 13 as previously advertised, Wednesday night show is fully sold out.
Annual Cemetery Mass
Annual Cemetery Mass on Wednesday, July 10, 7.30pm. Please spread the word among family members, friends and former neighbours who have moved to live elsewhere (including the UK) and invite them to return to their family's roots and to the reposing place of their deceased loved ones.
Light refreshments will be served after Mass, with opportunity for chat and ‘catching up.’
Emly Festival Mass
Emly Festival Mass, on Sunday, July 14, at 11.15am. As well as highlighting the theme of the festival - “Leave No One Behind” - which is very much a gospel message, this Mass will mark the 20th anniversary of the broadcast of Sunday Mass on RTE1 TV from Emly in summer 2004.
Long before the days of live streaming from churches, this was a landmark event in the history of Emly Parish. All who took part in or attended that 2004 Mass are invited to participate in the Festival Mass on July 14.
We invite all who were choir members (of whatever age in 2004) to return and to be part of the 2024 Choir. Likewise, Readers, Servers, Eucharist Ministers and all others. Here again, we ask resident parishioners to pass on the invitations to others now living beyond the parish boundaries.
