Two 5th year students from Millstreet Community School will be participating in the Irish Pilgrimage Trust young people’s pilgrimage to Lourdes during their Easter holidays 2024. Holly Saunders and Aoife Casey will be acting as student helpers and travelling to Lourdes with Group 126. Millstreet students have been travelling with this group since 2011.
As was the case in the past, the aim is to cover accommodation and travel costs for the two students (€750/person) with all extra funds being passed onto Group 126. Each group is meant to raise the funds to cover the costs of all the young people with special needs who travel with them to Lourdes.
The first fundraising event are two Bake Sales which will take place in the Millstreet Parish Centre on Saturday 16th December after the 6.15pm Mass and on Sunday 17th December after the 11.30am Mass. Your support for these events would be gratefully appreciated.
