Temporarily closed - Holy Trinity Westport

Please watch this space 

Holy Trinity Westport has suffered damage to a small part of the roof and ceiling as a result of Storm Éowyn. The Select Vestry regrets having had to close the building in the meantime but hope to be able to reopen very soon.

Please watch this space for information on alternative accommodation arrangements.
You can also contact us by email (aughaval@tuam.anglican.org) or phone or message us on083 800 3233.

Please note that tomorrow’s 'Ecumenical Elevenses’, Wed 29 Jan, 10.30am, will be held in St Mary’s Westport rather than in Holy Trinity.

Thank you for your prayers and patience.

Return to Inishbiggle, Sat 15 February 2025

Image
  It was especially joyful for a few of us from mainland Mayo to step foot again on Inishbiggle on 15th February, having been prevented by the weather from sailing on our last attempt at the end of November 2024. While on this occasion it was lashing in Limerick, wet in Westport, and raining cats and dogs in Castlebar, the sun was splitting the clouds gloriously on the approach to beautiful Biggle. Also uplifting was to arrive at the church and on entering to find it looking, if not transfigured, transformed - for example, with its newly-stripped and repolished pews, clean floors, doors, harmonica and walls, and a close-to-spotless vestry into the bargain. Hats off and enormous thanks to the church wardens for the hours of painstaking work - truly a labour of love for this precious and important place of gathering and worship, emanating from a sincere love for God and his people, of all faiths and persuasions. Holy Trinity Inishbiggle conveys the message “Come on in! There’s plenty...

Eastertide Confirmations in Castlebar, 27 April 2025

Image
  Alleluia! Christ is risen! Three people from the Aughaval Parishes were confirmed by the Bishop of Tuam, Limerick and Killaloe, the Rt Revd Michael Burrows, on Sunday 27 April in Christ Church, Castlebar. The Confirmands taking up their baptismal promises were Susan (Susie) Fry, Grace Bourke (Westport) and James Bourke (Westport). The first and second lessons in the service were ably read by Grace and James. These are the questions which the bishop addressed for the Confirmands in his sermon: 1) What more can we in the Church of Ireland do in the face of the Biodiversity and Climate crisis? 2) Does everyone get into heaven? 3) What training do you have to go through to be a bishop? 4) What made you want to be a priest? 5) Has the bishop anything to say to help those who are serious both about their commitment to church and Christian discipleship and to their sports activities? Our gratitude to Bishop Michael for serving us and building us up in faith and love in the parishes, wit...
