& Coolruane. After dinner The Village, Ahabeg East, West & Middle.
PARISH PROGRAMME FOR FIRST COMMUNION: This helps parents, children and priest to be more actively involved in preparation. On Saturday night Dec. 7 th
at the vigil mass we will involve the children in a short meditation and dialogue on the Our Father . Preparations involved will be done outside of school hours.
Could I ask you to bring your child to the church on Wed night at 7.45pm when we will have a short practice. I have no doubt that we all wish to be more involved so that Holy Communion day on Sat. May 24 th
2014 will be more fruitful and meaningful for all of us.
