On Sept. 30th 1897 St. Therese of Lisieux died at the age of 24. She had become known worldwide as “The Little Flower”. Last year Mass was celebrated on that date in Drishane Church and likewise this year of 2010. The Celebrant tonight (30th Sept. 2010) was Fr. John Fitzgerald, P.P., Millstreet. Exquisite music and singing by Merina Cassidy on harp and Miriam O’Sullivan-Long on concert flute added immensely to the solemn occasion. Tasty refreshments were provided in the hall afterwards. Our thanks to the Duggan Family for arranging this very special annual event in such a beautiful and historic setting. (Seán)
