Eco-Congregation and School Sustainability Project An online directory and interactive map of recycling facilities and charity shops. Westport Eco Congregation asks the community of Westport to reflect on the beauty of our precious world and to consider what practical steps can be taken to prevent further damage to the environment. Also, we ask the community to consider those in the developing world already affected by climate change and their future generations. As part of our work we are delighted to launch this dynamic on line project for second level students. We are asking students to investigate all facilities in Westport that encourage and assist recycling and sustainability, to photograph and review the facilities and submit their entries to the parish office. The best entries will be selected and used as part of an online directory of facilities in Westport. This is a ground breaking project – we know of no other such on line directory in Ireland. We are sure that students will be excited and enthusiastic to be part of such a project and we look forward to seeing the students' imaginative entries. Add Data Project Outcomes The outcome of this project will be a comprehensive online catalog of facilities, equipped with advanced search and filtering options. The catalog will be SEO-optimized, ensuring that a simple Google search will direct users to a relevant listing or detailed page for the desired facility. A sample catalog can be viewed at the following link: [Link ] In addition, an automatically generated map of the facilities will be created. A sample of the map can be found here: [Link ] Both the catalog and map will be designed with a mobile-first approach, as over 80% of users accessing the Westport Parish site do so from mobile devices.

Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto thee, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother. To thee do I come, before thee I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in thy mercy, hear and answer me. Amen . Previous Next

Facebook X (Twitter) WhatsApp LinkedIn Pinterest Copy link Chuck Lamphier - Climbing Croagh Patrick 15 October 2014 8:59 am This weekend, Sarah and I joined 30 Notre Dame students who are studying abroad all over Europe in a weekend pilgrimage which including the climbing of Croagh Patrick, Ireland’s Holy Mountain. It is said to be the mountain which St. Patrick himself climbed up, and pilgrims have been hiking up its hillside ever since. Those who are feeling especially penitential will climb the mountain barefoot, and apparently we had a contrite batch of students, as at least a third of the group climbed up the hill sans footwear. In all seriousness, it was beautiful to watch them experience the physical and spiritual journey of the mountain. We made frequent stops for short reflections and prayers, and each time we paused, we were reminded of how blessed we are to live on this beautiful Earth.

Thanks be to God!

Facebook X (Twitter) WhatsApp LinkedIn Pinterest Copy link < Back Nicene Creed I believe in one God, the Father almighty, maker of heaven and earth, of all things visible and invisible. I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ, the Only Begotten Son of God, born of the Father before all ages. God from God, Light from Light, true God from true God, begotten, not made, consubstantial with the Father; through him all things were made. For us men and for our salvation, he came down from heaven, and by the Holy Spirit. was incarnate of the Virgin Mary and became man. For our sake, he was crucified under Pontius Pilate, he suffered death and was buried, and rose again on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures. He ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead and his kingdom will have no end. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son, who with the Father and the Son is adored and glorified, who has spoken through the prophets. I believe in one holy, catholic and apostolic Church. I confess one Baptism for the forgiveness of sins and I look forward to the resurrection of the dead and the life of the world to come. Amen.
