Weekly Update May 19th-23rd 2025

CONFIRMATION:  Firstly, we want to begin by congratulating all the boys on their wonderful participation at last night's Confirmation celebration. From the moment the ceremony began to the very last words spoken with such sincerity by Monsignor Ciarán, the boys were so reverent and so engaged in all aspects of the liturgy making the whole ceremony such a wonderful celebration for us all.Special thanks to their class teachers, Jeanne Marie Phillips and Judy Doyle and the SNA, Lynne Cole, for all their hard work and commitment in preparing the boys at school and to the choir, under the direction of Aoife Cartwright, for their beautiful singing throughout the ceremony. It was a real pleasure for us to work with the boys and indeed with you as well and we couldn't have been prouder of them last night. We look forward to meeting you all again on Sat the 7th of June at the 6pm vigil Mass back in Booterstown Church when the parish will have an opportunity to celebrate with the boys at Mass and afterwards over light refreshments in the Parish Centre. With renewed thanks and kind
