Message for Confirmation Families from Fr Pat.
Dear Parents/ Guardians,
As promised we are getting back to you re the
Confirmation Ceremony.
So much has changed since before Christmas, and given
the new virus strain and the simplicity of transmission; it is
necessary for us to shelve any provisional plans we had made up to now.
The general advice we are getting from many sources
(including contact tracers) is to push the ceremony as far out in
the year as is possible.
There is no point in choosing another date as
the situation will remain fluid for the foreseeable future. The
best we may be able to hope for is having the Ceremony
sometime in June, but it is not beyond the bounds of possibility that it could
go later.
What we can say for definite is that even then the attendance will be confined to the immediate household and as a
consequence, the sponsor in all cases will be a Parent /Guardian,
or a sibling aged 16 or over.
We will keep you updated
Kind Regards
Paul Horan
