TWENTY students from Transition Year in Presentation Secondary School received certificates marking their participation in the Children’s Liturgy programme in St John’s Parish.

The certificates were presented by Eileen Doyle (Children’s Liturgy Co-ordinator) and Fr Bernard Healy.

The Children’s Liturgy programme has been up and running at the 10.30am Sunday Mass for many years. It provides an opportunity for children under First Communion age to engage in age-appropriate prayer and an explanation of the Sunday readings whilst their parents attend Mass in the church.

This year marks the first year that the students from Pres Secondary have been involved. Over the course of the year they took turns in assisting the regular adult volunteers in supervising and working with the children.

Fr Healy thanked the students for their commitment and dedication in working with the children.

“It has been wonderful to see their willingness to get involved in this parish programme and the support they have given to this faith-development project,” he said.
