Dear Parent(s) / Guardian(s),

The Confirmation Ceremonies planned for July 1^st and 2^nd 2021 have now to be celebrated on Thursday July 8^th 2021.

The ceremonies originally planned can no longer go ahead following renewed Government and Health Regulator Guidelines which state that no Sacramental Ceremonies can be celebrated until after July 5^th. The Diocese of Waterford & Lismore is following all of the advice that it is given by the appropriate authorities and has informed every Parish that all dates now are provisional and subject to change.  

Thursday July 8^th is the earliest date that the Parish of Portlaw & Ballyduff can now provide for the celebration of Confirmation and all three classes expecting to celebrate Confirmation will do so through three separate services. Portlaw Primary School will inform you of your child’s service and time this date.

I am aware of the inconvenience that this change may cause you and apologise for it.

 

Blessings & Peace,

 

Fr. Richard O’Halloran PP
