Congratulations and God Bless to our Primary 4 children from Maghera Parish who celebrated their First Holy Communion at the 11.00 a.m. mass on Saturday 29th May 2021 in St. Mary’s Church.
We are grateful to have seen you celebrate this special day in your sacramental life, as you received the Body of Jesus for the first time. Your joy and enthusiasm for Holy Communion is an inspiration to all of us!
Thank you to Fr Doherty and Fr O’Doherty for celebrating the beautiful mass.
Fr. Doherty PP commented after the simple ceremony on the great reverence displayed by the children.
My thanks to everyone in school who helped to prepare the children for this special day, especially our Primary 4 class teacher Mrs Ciara Cassidy. Thanks too goes to those who assisted during mass -First reading was read by Mrs Cassidy. Mrs Aiveen Downey was responsible for the music liturgy which added much to the ceremony.
We are grateful too for the support of parents today and every day.
Your words of thanks and encouragement after mass today are very much appreciated, especially during this time of pandemic.
We thank God too for blessing us all with such beautiful weather today!
Mrs Mc Master
