ALL IN AN APRIL EVENING

Congratula­tions to Grainne Diskin and Duleek Parish Choir on the superb concert entitled “All in an April Evening” held in St Cianans Church Friday 20th April . The music and singing was wonderful and most enjoyable. The purpose of the concert was to raise funds towards repairs required for the Church roof which was damaged during the storm and the boiler also needs replacing. Thanks to everybody who helped in any way, so far the concert has raised almost €3000.
