We are delighted to announce that the MSC Plant, Book & Cake Sale run by the Sacred Heart Parish in Cork has raised a grand total of €3,821.82 in aid of the Holy Family Care Centre in South Africa.
The Bring & Buy Sales ran after Saturday and Sunday Masses at the Sacred Heart Parish Centre on the Western Road, Cork, on 27th and 28th May 2017 – and it seems like the summer sunshine brought the parish out in force!
We would like to sincerely thank everybody who contributed so generously and with such goodwill. All funds raised will go to the Holy Family Care Centre in South Africa, where the Sacred Heart Family provide essential medical care and educational facilities to children who have been orphaned or are otherwise suffering as a result of HIV/AIDS and TB. The staff and volunteers at Holy Family are giving hope to children who have nowhere else to turn, and the generosity of our mission friends in Cork will be a great boost to the entire community.
“Although we are halfway across the world, kindness knows no boundaries. The generosity of our parishioners and mission friends in Cork will give great encouragement to the Holy Family community in South Africa. Thank you to everybody who attended our Bring & Buy Sales for your enthusiasm and your contribution.”
Fr Michael O’Connell MSC
