Mass was celebrated within the ruins of the fourteenth century Church in Parkmore Cemetery on 5th July 2024, and was offered for those buried in the cemetery. Many thanks to all who helped in the preparations for the Mass, including sacristans, the parish choir, and especially Thomas Kavanagh and those who responded to his call, who prepared the cemetery for the celebration of the Mass and the blessing of the graves.
May the souls of the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace.
