Many thanks to all who supported the  recent BISHOP’S VISITATION  especially those who cleaned and decorated our churches for the occasion and who supported the Liturgies at the two Masses he celebrated.

Celebration of Confirmation

Many thanks to all who helped to ensure that our Deanery celebration of Confirmation was a wonderful occasion:

Huge thanks to the Catechists who prepared the youngsters, to those who prepared the church, booklets, flowers, certificates etc, and to the musicians and singers who enhanced the liturgy on the night itself.

These services are very much appreciated.
