LISTOWEL TREE

Thanks to everybody who came to our Remembrance ceremony on the recent beautiful frosty Sunday evening. After Canon Declan blessed the tree, twelve Chinese lanterns were released into the night sky. The hospitality provided by Máire Logue in St Johns helped keep us warm.

THANK YOU

A huge thank you to our wonderful ambassador Deirdre Walsh who organised a wonderful night last Thursday in Listowel to fund the renovation of one of the bathrooms. Poetry by the pulpit was a night with a difference and was held in the beautiful surroundings of St John’s Theatre in Listowel. To all the wonderful readers on the night, the amazing entertainers and to all who attended we thank you most sincerely.
