Due to the reduced availability of priests, three of the churches in the St Ailbe's area will not have Masses from the weekends of June 14-15 to September 6-7 inclusive.
The churches affected are St Patrick's Church, Cullen, St Brigid's Church, Templebraden and St Brigid's Church, Dromkeen.
These closures will certainly inconvenience those without access to transport and may ultimately have an adverse affect on the respective churches.
