Dear Parishioners,
I commend to your attention the current appeal for people to consider joining the Bone Marrow Register, in response to the appeal on behalf of young Daniel Greer from Newry.
With kindest regards,
Archbishop Eamon Martin

Do it for Daniel Appeal
We, the friends, and family of Daniel Greer have set up a social media appeal to find a bone marrow donor for the 14-vear-old Newry schoolboy who is very ill with leukaemia in a Belfast hospital. We were recently told a bone marrow transplant is his
only hope of beating this deadly disease and we’re now in a race against time to find a donor who will be the correct match.
Last weekend, the Archbishop of Armagh and Apostolic Administrator of Dromore kindly agreed to ask parishioners to support our appeal and encouraged them to join the bone marrow register. If you would like to know more information please look at the following.
