BISHOP Ray Browne will celebrate a Centenary Mass at the Austin Stack’s Club in Connolly Park on this Tuesday evening at 7pm.
Following the Mass the Bishop will bless the Nun’s field. It is fitting that the blessing will be performed by Bishop Ray Browne as the field was part of the Mercy Convent and was purchased from the Bishop’s Trust.
The purchase of the Nuns Field was a dream come true for the Stacks Club. Efforts to secure a second pitch had been ongoing since the eighties and many officials and members have toiled in the intervening years to bring it to fruition.
It will help to cater for the club’s ever-growing membership, particularly the Youth of the Club whom they hope will take it forward for the next one hundred years. Everyone is welcome on Tuesday night, Rockie or not!
