First Holy Communion Ceremony for Courtney & Saoirse

A very impressive First Holy Communion ceremony took place in Our Lady of Lourdes Church, Ballydaly on Saturday, 27th April 2024.   The two children receiving the Sacrament were Courtney Twomey and Saoirse Murphy – both pupils of Cloghoula N.S..   The Celebrant was Canon John Fitzgerald, P.P., Millstreet.   Here we share a selection of images from the very special event.   Tap on the pictures to enlarge.

Both of these above pictures were taken by Photographer supreme – Geraldine Dennehy.
