We are continuing with our Town Hall meetings this week. On Wednesday 9th at 7.30pm here in CORE we will be looking at church finance. Then on Sunday 20th at 7.30pm we will be meeting to look at our vision and thoughts about the new minister. Please put these dates in your diary, it would be great to input from as many people as possible!

Impact: Work in the community

Hi Folks,
I recently got a request from a local woman whether we as a church could help an elderly lady in the community (actually Maryland where Salla and I live!) with some painting work she needs doing in her house. I would love if we could help her. Anyone up for it? Send me a mail at paddy@corechurch.ie if you are, or call me on 0872919590. God Bless, Paddy Heron.

Rediscovering St. Patricks Day Gathering

As part of 24-7 prayer Ireland’s “What if?” Year of Prayer (see www.24-7prayerireland.com/what-if/) churches, schools and communities across Dublin are praying throughout March (CORE being one of these!!). As a celebration of all the prayer that will be happening we will be gathering together with all these groups on the evening of March 17th.
As well as a chance to hear stories from prayer rooms around the city we will also be hearing from Hazel Mulhare who will be sharing what she has being learning about the significance of St. Patrick and our early Christian heritage here in Ireland. Also we would love to hear your stories, prayers and facts about Patrick so do bring some along! So make a day of it, go see the parade and then come along and join us in Immanuel Church on Bachelors Walk at 7pm to celebrate the true meaning of St. Patricks Day with us!

Prayer Requests and Thanksgivings

• Give thanks for the relationships that have been built with the Kidz Klub mums over the years and pray for wisdom as we look to further developing them.
