Last Sunday, the fifth and sixth class children celebrated the sacrament of Confirmation alongside Charlestown NS, Tavneena NS and Barnacogue NS. From the early morning of the 12th of May, the sun shone as the Church of St James welcomed everyone for this special occasion.
The children welcomed their immediate and extended families as well as their sponsors to their Confirmation last Sunday. The church was alive with excitement as the sacrament of Confirmation is regarded as a very important sacrament for the children. They are blessed with the gifts and the fruits of the Holy Spirit which will help to guide them as they develop and grow.
We would like to thank Fr. Johnston and Fr. Doherty who confirmed the children. A huge well done to Mr Haran and the fifth and sixth class children as much hard work, time and preparation was afforded to this ceremony. The children created many pieces of art work and their scrapbooks. They also prepared prayers and songs, all of which were preformed so well at mass on Sunday.
Everyone at Cloonlyon NS is tremendously proud of our newly confirmed fifth and sixth classes. We wish them the very best as they venture through life following the path that God has set for them.
