Twenty Fifth Sunday in Ordinary Time Our human horizons are so limited! So often we calculate the cost of our generosity – giving only tothe DESER VING – afraid that our ‘goodness’ may be wasted. Our Godisnot limited. H e takes the risk of his love being wasted anditis only because of such love that we can have hope. The Parishioner The Generosity of God S unday 20-September-2026 The Lord is close toallwho call him. Visit Our Website: theparishioner.ie or Facebook www.facebook.com/ Ballincollig Parish Number for Priest on Duty is: 0 87 4021357 For Parish o ffice Telephone is 089 4008181 Mon - Wed. 9.00am - 12. 30pm This mornings’ gospel from MaƩhew is preceded by a great bold question asked by Peter; “What about us, we have left everything and followed you. What areweto have then?” Jesus said tohim,“I tell you solemnly, Everyone who has left father, mother, brother, sister for the sake of my name will receive a hundred times over and also inherit eternal life.” “Many who are first will be last, and the last, first.” Christ goes on then to tell the parable of the Landowner, the workers and the vineyard. This great parable tells usina dramatic way about the generosity of God. Peter and his companions took a very courageous step in life; they left the familiar life of boats, fishing, companions and many familiar places to searc hforanew life with the C hrist, the Messiah. The new life brought happiness, fulfilment and many challenges. However from time to time there were niggling doubts and questions hence the question, “what about us, we have left everything.” The first lesson from the word of God today is that it is important to put words on our questions. Raising questions provides opportunities forusto learn and in today’s gospel Peters’ question provides the context for the great teaching on the generosity of God. The culture and society of the 21st century continually reinforces the correctness of asking the question “what about us, we have left everything “. The culture oftheday goes even further and ask “ What about me, what is my reward going to be “ The world of achievement and success finds it di fficult to accommodate the generosity of God. Help us to realise that Idonot have to earn or deserve the generosity of God’s love in my life, th ankfully it is freely available to me twenty fours even. The Family of Parishes of: Ballincollig | Ballinora | Kilmurry | Ovens and Farran S can for Website Ballincollig - Volunteers for C hurch Ministries.

Also for students in transition or above ifyouarea regular Mass goer, you might consider becomi ng a Minister of the E ucharist. Training will be provided for both.

Nevertheless, we kindly askyouto support this important collection as generously as possible. Your continued support in promoting vocations is sincerely appreciated. Reflection for Parents How many times adaydoour children point out that someone got more than they did? E nough, I'm sure, forusto know that today's Gospel illustrates a human re- sponse! But our human ways are not God's ways. God' s generosity is sometimes beyond our understanding. But imagine what a world it would beifwe rejoiced in gen- erosity and good fortune of others. C antairí Mhúscraí is a mixed voice choir based here in Ballincollig and have a wide repertoire of music in cluding church, classical, popular and showtunes. Apart from other performances we sing in St. Mary’s & St. J ohn’s Church at the 6.00p m Mass on the 3rd Saturday of every month. We welcome new members to all lines, without formal audition. Ability to read music is not essential, we just need singers who can hold a tune and blend into the overall sound. We rehearse every Wednesday night from 7.20 to 9.20pm at Ballincollig C ommunity S choo l. Joining at this time of year is ideal as we begin to learn new music. See you there!

The main message of the Gospel for the 25th Sunday in Ordinary Time i s that GodÕs grace and mercy are unconditional gifts, not wages to be earned. 1. God operates on love, not transactional logic: Human systems are built on merit, where your reward matches your hours logged. God, however, does n ot use a spirtual timecard. The landowner pays the workers who arrived at the final ho ur the exact same daily wage (a denarius) as those who slaved all day in the heat. This shows that salvation and divine love are granted out of pure generosity, not bas ed on our personal achievements or how long we have been ÒpiousÓ. 2. Radical equality in the eyes of God: The parable directly challenges our human instincts about fairness. The early workers grumble, expecting more because they did more. By treating everyone equally, Jesus flips human hierarchy u pside down, concluding with the definitive phrase: The last will be first, and the fir st will be last. In GodÕs Kingdom, those who enter the faith late in life are just as valued as those who have served God since childhood. 3. A cure for spiritual envy: When the landowner asks the resentful workers, ÒAre you envious because I am generous?Ó, Jesus exposes a deep flaw in hum an nature. The Gospel warns us against comparing our spiritual journey to othe rs or resenting someone elseÕs blessings. Instead, it invites us to rejoice in GodÕs mercy whenever and to whomever it is given.

The vineyard owner is God. The labourers areallthe people whogetan oppor- tunity to hear the word of God and live byit. The agreed daily wage is God’s agreement with anyofhis believers that once they listen to the word of God and put it into action in their daily life then they will get their reward which is life in the Kingdom of Heaven. The work day in this parable represents a person’s life on earth. Jesus used this parable to explain that whether you hear the word of God and put it action as a young child or whether you only hear about the word of God and put it into action later in life the reward is exactly the same, eternal life in the Kingdom of Heaven. Youputthe word of God into action when you avoid anything in your every- day life that is unworthy of the gospel of Christ. Car Parking Since the consolidation of Weekend Masses, carparking remains an issue, es- pecially in keeping the carpark entrances and exits clear, for the unhindered access of emergency vehicles. We again ask for your patience and coopera- tion with the following: • Please do not park in the reserved spaces for resident and visiting Priests. • Please do not park inanyofthe clear ways marked out by yellow lines. These areas are essential to allow unrestricted access to emergency ser- vices at all times . They also allow for the safe two-way flow of traffic. • Please do not move traffic cones, they are there for a reason. • It is inevitable that double parking will be required. If you have to double park, we would respectfully ask that you return to your car as quickly as possible, soasnotto impede other vehicles.

This fund plays a vital role in supporting the formation and ongoing education of those serving in priestly and diaconal ministry. We are deeply aware of the financial challenges that many individuals and families face at this time. Nevertheless, we kindly ask you to support this collection with your usual generosity. Your continued support in encouraging and promoting vocations here in this diocese through your financial contributions and your prayers is very much appreciated. Priesthood in Cork and Ross If you are between the ages of 18 and 40 and feel there is a possibility that God may be calling you to be a diocesan priest, then our monthly discernment group meetings may be a good way to help you discern this call.

The first meeting takes place on Saturday next, 26th September. To find out more, have a chat, or to register your interest, please email Fr. Marius at vocations@corkandross.org Live Stream The sanctuary areas of both the Sacred Heart Church, Glounthaune and St. Joseph’s Church, Little Island are continuously monitored via 24/7 livestream.

The Priest must live only to become a saint A book titled: ‘The Priests we need to save the Church’ is a crie-de-cour by the author for real priests, holy men, to lead once again the Church of God - and to offer solace and sure support to the flock of Christ that is lost and bleeding. The writer, Kevin Wells, demands much from the priest who will ministe r today. He says “for far too long too many wayward churchmen have profaned, insulted, and trampled upon a sacred heritage that generations of hardworking, sincere Catholics priests built their lives around. “We need faithful priests - not the lazy, repressed, social justice types with inauthentic vocations who have packed the seminaries, dominated the headlines, and sullied the reputation of the holy priesthood over the past several decades. Until the parish priest lives only to become a saint, there will be no healing in the Church. Until the parish priest embraces poverty and pours himself out without counting the cost, the Church's sickness will worsen. Until the parish priest decides to die for his flock, the Church will remain on life support. “We need real men today; bold proclaimers of God's Word who are unafraid to preach the Catholic faith as the blazing furnace of Truth that it is. We need priests who are willing to preach tough homilies, hear daily confessions, commit to daily Holy Hours, and remain magnanimous of heart through long, sometimes thankless 16-hour days. We need priests to offer up their lives now so that the laity will gain a restored sense of fatherhood. Such priests will become the story of our time. They will bring about massive conversions and re store our Church and our culture.” Priests of the area: Fr. Tomás Walsh, SMA. PP ( walshtomas@hotmail.com ) Tel: 021-4303 658. Fr.

Artificial Intelligence and risk of dehumanization The head of the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church said in an interview that “it is essential that artificial intelligence not replace human beings, nor be used against human dignity.” Major Archbishop Sviatoslav Shevchuk warned that “it is imperative that human beings not become slaves to the fruits of their own culture, to what they themselves have created.” “What artificial intelligence will never be able todoisto love,” he added. “We must still become ‘human’ with a capital ‘H.’ And this h appens when we contemplate the face of God or speak with Him. For we are made in the image of God.” Cork Scripture Group would like to invite anyone who is interested in Scripture to join us for the following course.

Priest on Duty: Fr. Robert Young: 021 4773700. EMER GENCY No.: 086 3339063 Please read this poem slowly and pause frequently to let the points sink in: Pray don’t find fault with the person who limps Or stumbles along the road. Unless, you have worn the shoes they wear Or struggled beneath their load. There may be tacks in their shoes that hurt Though hidden away from view Or the burden they bear placed on your back Might cause you to stumble too. Don’t smear the person who is down today Unless you have felt the blow That caused their fall, or felt their shame That only the fallen know. You may be strong, but still the blows That were theirs, if dealt to you In the self-same way, at the self-same time Might cause you to stagger too. Don’t be too harsh with the person who sins Or pelt them with words or stones Unless you are sure – yes doubly sure That you have no sins of your own. For you know, perhaps, if the tempters voice Should whisper as soft to you, As it did to them when they went astray ‘Twould cause you to falter too. [Source: “Judge Softly” by Mary T. Lathrap] No. 4.

St. Joseph's Mayfield

20/09/2026

Family of Parishes Our Lady Crowned Church St Joseph’s Church & Holy Family Church Gospel Reflection: Be persistent… and patient… Our Gospel today is about persistence… just as the widow in the story pesters the judge until he delivers a just decision we too are called to be persistent. Persistence in prayer demonstrates that we are not afraid to show our dependence on God even though all around us society says we need be self-sufficient, to look after ourselves. To keep praying is equally looking after ourselves but also the needs of those around us and the needs of our world. The widow in the story is concerned about the delay in getting a response, however we must not only must persevere in prayer we must be patient, awaiting God’s time for an answer and accepting the answer even though it may not be one we wanted! God will always give the right answer to our prayers, even if in the immediate moment it may not seem that way. Take time to reflect on what have been the fruits of your own persistent prayer? When you have patiently waited for God’s time and response… Parish Clergy Contact Details Moderator & Co-PP: Fr Charles Kiely Our Lady Crowned Church, Upper Mayfield, Cork.

Cork Cathedral Fa mily of Pari shes La unches Cli mate Justice Education Project The Cork Cathedral Family of Parishes was delighted to officially launch its Climate Justice Education Project, bringing together members of our parishes, community organisations and invited guests for a morning of reflection, discussion and shared commitment to caring for our common home. Introducing Lay Funeral Ministers We still value having our funerals over several days, we appreciate the effort our neighbours make to come to the funeral home to sympathise, we look for a funeral Mass which acknowledges the personality of the deceased person an d their relationships, not just a generic church service to pray for them. To assist parishioners keep our funerals as we like to have them, our north-side parishes will introduce lay ministers as part of a funeral team with the clergy. Initially these lay funeral ministers will lead the bereaved in prayer the ni ght before the funeral Mass, usually in the funeral home, as priests used to do before Covid. Many of us have missed that moment of prayer with the priest and so we will re-introduce it with the lay ministers. In time, the lay funeral ministers will be available to families to begin prep aring the funeral Mass with the diocesan booklet of readings, prayers and hymns. Later, they may be present at the funeral Mass and be of help there. We're not sure when priests will begin to be unavailable for all the burial services i n the cemeteries, but it is worth preparing for that eventuality sooner rather than later. A number of parishioners have already been approached to consider taking on this rewarding ministry. They will be trained over several weeks by the diocese and then begin working alongside the clergy of our parishes. We are all aware o f the lay funeral ministers already operating in Farranree, around The Lough and

Togher

20/09/2026

We know you will appreciate the ministry of lay funeral ministers alongside the ministry of the priests and deacons, representing the parish by leading mourn ers and their neighbours, family and friends, in prayer the night before the funeral Mass. While we are beginning with the three northside parishes which have approximately 166 funerals of parishioners each year - the cathedral, Blackpoo l with the Glen and Ballyvolane, Sunday's Well - in time, we will extend this valuable ministry to the other parishes in our family of parishes. Please k eep your fellow parishioners in prayer as they prepare to serve in our pari shes. The initial meeting for those already approached to consider this ministry will be on Wednesday 30th September at 7pm in the Cathedral Visitor Centre. The diocesan training will be on three consecutive Wednesdays nights: 14th, 21st, and 28th October. Venue to be decided. CATHEDRAL FAMILY OF PARISHES SYRO- MALABAR CATHOLIC COMMUNITY ST. BRENDAN’S CHURCH Our Syro-Malabar Catholic Church Community in Cork has been celebrating Holy Qurbana and conducting Catechism classes at SMA Wilton Church for many years. We are pleased to announce that, through the kind consideration, vision and guidance of Bishop Fintan Gavin, we have now been granted permission to celebrate our Holy Qurbana at St. Brendan’s Roman Catholic Church, The Glen, and to conduct our Catechism classes at the school located adjacent to the church. Going forward, our regular Sunday schedule will be: - 3:30PM – Catechism Classes - 5:00PM – Holy Qurbana We would like to express our sincere and heartfelt gratitude to Bishop Fintan Gavin for inviting and welcoming our community to St. Brendan’s and for making this new arrangement possible. We are also deeply grateful to Fr. John, who has provided us with valuable assistance and support throughout this process. Our heartfelt thanks also go to all the parishioners of St. Brendan’s Church of Blackpool, Glen, Ballyvolane Parish for their warm and gracious welcome to our community. We truly appreciate their kindness, generosity and support as we begin this new chapter together. Thinking about being a Priest in the Diocese of Cork & Ross? If you are between the ages of 18 and 40 and feel there is a possibility that God may be calling you to be a diocesan priest, then our monthly Discernment Group Meetings may be a good way to help you to discern this call. The first meeting takes place on Saturday September 26th.

All on earth thy sceptre own, all in heav’n above adore thee. Hark, the loud celestial hymn, Angel choirs above are raising; Cherubim and seraphim, In unceasing chorus praising, th


Infinite thy vast domain, everlasting is thy reign. Fill the heav’ns with sweet accord, Holy, holy, holy Lord. Family of Parishes Event The usual evening of reflection for those involved in the pari sh will this year be open to the other parishes in our family of parishes, Douglas/Rochestown, Frankfield/Grange, Turner’s Cross. It will take place in the parish centre in Frankfield o n Thursday, 22 October. More info later. A parish of the people Thankfully, Turner’s Cross is very much a parish of the people. So many take responsibility to ensure we have a vibrant and faith-filled community. We acknowledge the contribution of people’s time and effort. Itisa ministry of service onwhichwe invoke God’s blessing. Ifyoudonot have an active responsibility in the parish feel free to propose what youwould like todo. We definitely need more people to join the Baptism team and the Funeral team. These work very well during the year butitcanbea strain during the holidays. Historic Moment in our Parish Looking back over the last 12 months the shock of needing a new boiler for the church stands out. We were 7 weeks withou t heat in the coldest part of the year. The challenge of finan cingnd


the installation of a boiler was immense, the cost being €30,000. Within three months this amount was raised, mostly by large anonymous donations. At this stage these generous contributions, together with several more modest sums, deserve the most sincere and warm appreciation. You took responsibility for your church/parish and this made all the difference. Mile buiochas. May God reward you. Thinking about being a Priest in the Diocese of Cork and Ross? If you are between the ages of 18 and 40 and feel there is a possibility that God may be calling you to be a diocesan priest, then our monthly Discernment Group. Meetings may be a good way to help you to discern this call. It is a gentle non-co mmittal first step in the process which takes the form of a monthly meeting with other men discerning their call. The monthly meetings offer an opportunity for prayer, conversation, fellowship and accompaniment. An experienced spiritual director will also be provided to help guide you along th e path. The first meeting takes place on Saturday September 26th. To find more, have a chat, or to register your intere st, please email Fr Marius at vocations@corkandross.org Celebrating 40 Years Holy Cross Church, Mahon is celebrating 40-years since the establishment of our church. To celebrate this milestone, we are delighted to host a Triduum, led by the Redemptorists on Monday 21st, Tuesday 22nd and Wednesday 23rd September 2026, beginning at 7.30pm each night.


A Gathering for Diocesan Alpha Teams will take place on Saturd ay, 26 September, from 10.00am to 3.00pm in Mardyke House. Existing Alpha teams are warmly invited, and we would also encourage parishes and Families of Parishes without a team to invite parishioners whomaybe interested in becoming involved. Weekend Mass Collection Last weekend the amount received was €1025.00 Special collection for Priesthood Education: €525.00 Recessional Hymn: Now Thank weallour God With heart and hands and voices, Who wondrous things has done, In whom his world rejoices; Who from our mothers’ arms Has blessed usonourway With countless gifts of love, And still is ours today O may this bounteous God Through all our life be near us, With ever joyful hearts And blessed peace to cheer us, To keep usinhis grace, And guide us when perplexed, And free us from all ills Of this world and the next.

Family of Parishes Our Lady Crowned Church St Joseph’s Church & Holy Family Church Sunday 20th September 2026 25th Sunday in Ordinary Time ~ Year A Gospel Reflection Anewwayof working … Have you ever been jealous of a sibling, a colleague at work, a team-mate? Have you ever felt that they were receiving better treatment than you, even though youputin more effort, more time, ordida better job than they did?Ifyouare like me and answer honestly – I am sure wecanall, say YESto these questions; and so, this parable is for each ofus!Our Gospel today offers a radical way of looking at life and work. Today Jesus upsets the expectations and the commonly held views of the status seeking and result-driven society. He makes it clear that the economy of the Kingdom of Godisnot based on individual merit, competition, success and achievement; rather it is predicated on the common good, justice, inclusion and equity for all people. That iswhyhe tells this parable where the vineyard owner gives as much to the last hired worker that dayashe does to those hired first. It was hard to accept for the workers that day, just asitis hard forusto accept sometimes when we feel we are treated unfairly in comparison to others. Today offers us an invitation to reflect and to come to accept that the common good of all people iswayofthe Gospel.
