WELCOME TO THE PARISH FAMILY Today we greet Aoife Grace Treharne, Adam Liam White and Kiernan Pearse Doherty who were baptised recently. Following the wonderful congregational singing of the Alleluia on Sunday past, the 12 o’clock Choir would be delighted if some of those downstairs might come upstairs. We are greatly in need of new Choir members & would really appreciate it if any parishioners would join us. Thank you in joyful expectation.
