Parish Team
In Fr. Peter’s words; “The Dream Team. At the centre of the parish activities and events there is a team of three people. Fr. Dermot Lane, Brid Fitzgerald and Peter Byrne. They meet regularly and contribute to the day to day running of the Parish.
They are supported in secretarial work by the Parish office and by two priests: Fr. Padraig McCarthy and Fr. John Looby; who, though retired, continue to make a huge contribution to the Parish.”

Welcome
WELCOME to Balally Parish website.
I hope you will find it informative, and even inspiring.
Informative in terms of providing the times of Church services like weekend Masses, dates for Baptisms, the names of the Parish Team, the members of the Parish Pastoral Council and of the many other groups that work collaboratively with us in the Parish. You might even want to join one or other of these groups and if so you might get in touch with us.
You might also find the website inspiring insofar as it lists the various pieces of Liturgical Art in the Church, with some commentary and explanation. In particular, you might wish to visit the entries on the website about
– the Washing of the Feet
– the Torah Scroll
– the Burning Bush
– the Stations of Creation in stained glass
– the Stations of the Cross
Lastly, if you have any comments to offer on the design of the website or on how we might improve it, we would be delighted to hear from you.
Thank you for visiting the Balally website.
Wishing you every blessing and Shalom.
Fr. Dermot A. Lane, PP
