Buille tubaisteach dúinn
é bás tobann Leaslaoi Uí
Bhriain, ar 18 Nollaig 2007, agus gan ach
56 bliana slánaithe aige. Ba Rúnaí
Oinigh an Chumainn é Leaslaoi ó
bhí sé ina dhalta ollscoile.
Bhí sé an-díograiseach
ag eagrú imeachtaí an Chumainn,
go háirithe na seirbhísí
rialta. Aireoimid uainn go mór é.
|
The sudden death
of Leslie Bryan on 18 December 2007 at 56
years of age is a tragic blow for us. Leslie
was Honorary Secretary of the Guild since
his student days. He was very zealous in organising
the Guild's events, especially the regular
services. We shall miss him greatly. |
|
An lá céanna
cailleadh cara mór an Chumainn, An
Déan Desmond Harman, déan
Ardteampall Chríost. Cé nach
raibh sé sa phost seo ach le níos
lú na ceithre bliana, ní hé
amháin gur thug sé tacaíocht
chroíúil don Chumann, bhí
sé freagrach as seirbhísí
agus ócáidí Gaeilge
eile a thionscnamh san Ardteampall.
|
The same day
the Guild lost another great friend, Dean
Desmond Harman, dean of Christ Church Cathedral.
Although only less than four years in this
position, not only did he give wholehearted
support to the Guild, he was responsible for
instituting other Irish language events and
services in the Cathedral. |
|
Déanaimid comhbhrón
ó chroí le muintir Leaslaoi
agus Desmond.
|
We offer our
heartfelt sympathy to the families of Leslie
and Desmond. |
|
Tionóladh na gnáthsheirbhísí
in Ardteampall Chríost (an ceathrú
Domhnach ar 5 pm) agus i séipéal
Choláiste Oideachais Eaglais na hÉirinn,
Ráth Maonáis (an dara Domhnach
ar 8.30 am).
|
The usual services
were held in Christ Church Cathedral (fourth
Sunday at 5 pm) and in the chapel of the Church
of Ireland College of Education, Rathmines,
(second Sunday at 8.30 am). |
| Le linn Sheachtain
na hAontachta Críostaí tionóladh
an tSeirbhís Idirchreidmheach in Ardteampall
Chríost ar 19 Eanáir 2007. B'é
an tOirmh Darren McCallig, a ceapadh mar dhéan?i?gcónaí
i gColáiste na Tríonóide
ó shin, an seanmóirí. |
During the Octave
of Christian Unity the Interdenominational
Service was held in Christ Church Cathedral
on 19 January 2007. The Rev Darren McCallig,
since appointed Dean in Residence in Trinity
College Dublin, was the preacher. |
| Ar 2 Meitheamh
agus ar 29 Meán Fómhair 2007
faoi seach, ag Urnaí na Nóna
trí Ghaeilge in Ardteampall Chríost
seinneadh den chéad uair (i) píosa
ceoil don chór coimisiúnaithe
ag an gCumann ó Sheoirse Bodley bunaithe
ar théacs Amra Cholm Cille agus (ii)
cóiriúcháin nua den Magnificat
agus de Nunc Dimittis ag Simon McHale. Bhí
an ceol nuachumtha seo mar chuid d'imeachtaí
a d'eagraigh Colmcille, an Áisíneacht
Cultúrtha Gaeilge Éireannach/Albanach
ag comhoibriú leis an Déan Desmond
Harman agus le foireann uilig an Ardteampaill. |
On 2 June and 29 September
2007 respectively, at Evensong in Irish
in Christ Church Cathedral (i) a piece of
choral music commissioned by the Guild from
Seorise Bodley based on the text of Amra
Cholm Cille and (ii) a new arrangement of
the Magnificat and the Nunc Dimittis by
Simon McHale were played for the first time.
This newly composed music was part of events
organised by Colmcille, the Ireland-Scotland
Gaelic Culture Agency, in co-operation with
Dean Desmond Harman and the entire Cathedral
staff.

Gabhaimid buíochas
