THE Church of the Immaculate Conception in Rathass was the intimate setting on Saturday for a momentous occasion for young boys and girls in Caherleaheen National School.
The second class pupils were there to receive First Holy Communion in a lovely service celebrated by Fr Sean Jones.
Families arrived in the fine weather — which made the day all the sweeter — and Principal Mary Connolly congratulated the boys and girls while thanking all involved on the day. Scroll down for photos (prints available to buy, contact Dermot on 087-9384810)…
