FIRST COMMUNION:

Congratulations to all the children who celebrated their Communion, last Saturday in Granagh. It was a very wet day, but I'm sure that didn't dampen their spirits. The church and alter was decorated beautifully by the children's art and they were very well prepared by their teacher Elaine. The Easter garden was still in place and was a beautiful centre piece for the celebration. Parents and grandparents were very proud of all their children. Congratulations to - Aoife English, Ava Mai Ahern, Chloe Hartigan, Darragh O'Donoghue, Jack Kiely, Kaci Danielle Flynn/Ahern, Paul Griffin, Rory Lynch, Sophie Fitzgibbon, Tom Horgan and William Hartigan.
