Parish Finances (Fr Michael Brennan)

I thank you for the financial support you have been providing since the shut-down which has been deeply appreciated.

We have provided our standing order/direct transfer details below for those who wish to contribute online. Otherwise, parishioners can continue to leave the weekly envelopes in: *the Post Box outside the parish office in Barna or *the Post Box near the church entrance in Furbo - these boxed are checked each day.

The weekly boxes of envelopes for 2021 will not be available this month. The Christmas Dues envelopes are available inside the entrances to both churches. Until you receive the Box of envelopes, you could use the Dues envelope or a plain envelope in place of the relative envelope from the Box of envelopes, but please stipulate the breakdown of your contribution, i.e. your payment towards the church and parish office or towards the Priest’s Dues, or a combination of both. Make sure you put your box number on the envelope.

Parishioners are also making a payment by means of Standing Order or Direct Transfer.

Standing Orders: Copies of Standing Order Forms are available at the entrance of both churches.

If completing a Standing Order ensure that your name will appear on the Church’s Bank Statement by completing the required section on the Standing Order form. Standing Orders may be set up online if you have an online account or through your Bank Branch.

Direct Transfer: If you wish to make a direct transfer online you may do so by creating the Church Account as a SEPA Payee. As with the Standing Order, please ensure that your name will appear on the Church’s Bank Statement.

For Standing Orders and Direct Transfer, the Church’s Bank details are as follows:

BIC: BOFIIE2D IBAN:IE16 BOFI 9038 4012 9994 21

At a time when there are many pressures on people regarding finance, I want to sincerely thank you for your continued support. Please God, we will get through this prolonged crisis safely and well. Let us look forward to the day when we can live normal lives once more.

Fr. Michael
