It is a tribute to the people of the parish and to all who support the parish
that the repayments on the parish debt have been maintained in the past
year and we are making progress in reducing the debt.
During 2012, we also undertook a significant investment in the parish
church at Enniskeane with the installation of the pipe organ which came
from Clonakilty’s Mercy Convent. The installation required a reinforcing of
the choir gallery as well as a refitting of the gallery floor. It was also opportune
to rebuild the gallery stairs so that it all conforms to safety standards.
This extra work added a lot to the costs but it is all now finished and will be
a “job for life”.
At the start of 2012 the parish building fund debt stood at €145,413. During
2012, the monthly collections, fund-raising events and donations helped
bring the debt at the bank down to €67,277 by the end of the year.
