FEBRUARY 2025 SERVICE SCHEDULE FOR SAINT PATRICK’S CHAPEL IN CLIFDEN, IRELAND
Our February Service Schedule will observe the beginning of the Lenten Triodion to prepare for Great and Holy Lent and Pascha. Lent, the most important fast of the Orthodox Church, features often in the early Irish hagiography as a time of strenuous repentance. Starting with a week free of fasting (9.-15.02), the Lenten Triodion reminds us of our need for repentance in three consecutive lessons. On the first Sunday, 9.2, we remember the Publican and the Pharisee. On the following Sunday 16.2, we recall Christ’s parable of the Prodigal son. Finally, the Last Judgement is remembered on Meatfare Sunday, 23.02. Please note that no services will occur in Clifden on the weekend of 15-16.02 as Fr. Robert will be travelling.
