Mass was celebrated in Mount Cross Cemetery, Kinvara on 12th July 2024, and was offered for those buried in the cemetery, as well as those buried in other burial grounds around Kinvara Parish, and the blessing of the graves took places afterwards. Thanks you to all who helped in the preparations for the Mass, the parish choir, and especially the Mount Cross Cemetery Committee who set up for the Mass and who voluntarily look after the cemetery with such great care all year round. Thank you to Mary Hynes for the photos.
May the souls of the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace.
