Prayerful good wishes this weekend to the children who receive Holy Communion for the first time in Athboy, Rathmore and Rathcairn. We wish them every blessing as they come to receive the Body and Blood of Jesus. Please pray for them and for their families, may they grow in God’s love with the support of their parents, families and parish community.

Thank you to all who have helped the children along the way as they get to know God’s love for them. We say a special word of thanks to the teachers in schools for their dedication to the work of handing on faith to the children.
