Eily’s Report – 13th January

Dia is Mhuire díobh go léir a cairde and welcome to my Report.

A fond hello to one and all as we join forces at the start of another new year. We were so blessed with fine weather over the Christmas period. No traffic delays or cancellations.  Our Church ceremonies were all very well attended.  Our church was beautifully lit and brightly decorated. Our church choir and pipe band added their own special flavour and through our wonderful streaming service,  all of our services were received loud and clear in many parts of the globe. On the other hand those coming from far away places enjoyed the warmth and welcome that only comes from being with family and neighbours at this special time of the year. Many thanks to all those who helped in any way to make our Christmas so special.
