Welcome to the website of Upper Creggan Parish – and thank you for finding us. In this era of ever growing means of communication, our website aims to keep all members of our parish community, past and present; those here at home and those who have travelled to far-off shores; and our many friends, fully informed and up-dated on many aspects of parish life, ministries and services. In particular, we hope it will enable the sick and housebound and our many young emigrés to stay in touch with parish life through the weekly news sheet and other regular information updates.
For quite some years now all liturgies at our three parish churches are broadcast on radio. The website is an additional tool to help all whose lives are already busy to stay in touch with YOUR Parish.
Enjoy your time looking around our website and if you like what you see or find it useful, please come back again soon.
Until then, may God keep us all true to Him, as together we seek to make His Kingdom come.
Fr Dermot Maloney, PP



Prayer for the People of Ukraine

Loving God,
We pray for the people of Ukraine,
For all those suffering or afraid,
that you will be close to them and protect them.
We pray for world leaders,
for compassion, strength and wisdom to guide their choices.
We pray for the world; that in this moment of crisis,
we may reach out in solidarity
to our brothers and sisters in need.
May we walk in your ways
so that peace and justice
become a reality for the people of Ukraine
and for all the world.
Amen.
Our Lady, Queen of Peace, pray for us!
Our Lady of Kyiv, pray for us!

Christ be with me, Christ within me,
Christ behind me, Christ before me,
Christ beside me, Christ to win me,
Christ to comfort and restore me.
Christ beneath me, Christ above me,
Christ in quiet, Christ in danger,
Christ in hearts of all who love me,
Christ in mouth of friend and stranger.
