Visit of Bishop Donal Roche on 17 March

Golden Jubilee of the Scout Unit

Many people left our Church smiling after a lovely Mass celebrated by our guest of honour Bishop Donal Roche on St Patrick's Day. His very personable telling of the story of St Patrick, the myth versus reality, reminded us of the reason we celebrate St Patrick's Day. It was also lovely to have the Scout Troup with their leaders partake throughout the Mass. They looked so well in their uniforms as they carried out their duties. With the beautiful music and use of Irish at various points throughout, it was a really lovely occasion. (JA)
