Welcome to Ashbourne Donaghmore Parish
Welcome to the Ashbourne Donaghmore website. We see ourselves as a parish without walls, a parish that reaches out to and welcomes everybody. While the parish has to attend to day to day things, essentially it is about deeper things of the heart.
“Go deeper than love, for the soul has greater depths, love is like the grass, but the heart is deep wild rock molten, yet dense and permanent”. (DH Lawrence, taken from “Dive Deeper” by Michael Paul Gallagher.) We look forward to hearing from you because we want to listen and engage with you and your concerns and issues. We hope you will get the information you need on this website, but also that all of us will hear the good news of God’s great love for us.
While all of us want to share the kind of parish we want – “The real pastoral problem is simply to make a parish want the right thing, to instil in it a yearning for Christ. Then the rest will follow”.(Carlo Maria Martini) The real question is what kind of parish does God want Ashbourne Donaghmore parish to be.
