Naas Parish cluster

Wednesday, June 1st, 2011

Naas Parish, County Kildare have a unique but growing reality of parish clustering.  The Parish Priest of Naas is also the Parish Priest of the adjoining, Sallins and Two-Mile-House Parishes. All three parishes are served by the same parish team while all three maintain their individual identity and structure.

When it came to designing a new parish website is was important that each parish would have ownership of the site and be able to identify and promote their own community groups and parish ministries. It was also important to have one website as opposed to three so as to avoid trebling the workload and extra expense.

The new website looks and works really well and it is a fantastic means of communication in a large urban area and sprawling countryside.

“It is our hope that our website will contribute to uniting all who live here and help to build up community, so that people will be fulfilled in their own lives and families, and be willing to share their time and talents for the benefit of their neighbour, parish and community” naasparish.ie
