SUNFLOWER SUNDAY
Small Sunflower plants will be available at the 9.30am Mass this Sunday, 30th June. For over 20 years we have distributed these plants, all of which originated from a single flower given out at Children’s Liturgy in 2002. The Parish continues this tradition as a symbol of “Passing on the Faith”. Please keep us informed of how your plant grows and maybe send photographs to the Parish Office email address. Pots kindly donated by Fairdeal Garden Centre.
CONGRATULATIONS To Debbie & Rory who were married on Friday. We wish them health and happiness as they begin their married life together.
FAREWELL TO OUR P7s, We wish them every blessing for the summer, and in their new schools in September. Also to the other Boys and Girls of Holy Child P.S who finished School on Friday we hope you have a happy and enjoyable summer break, and for those travelling a safe journey.
