Sunday 24th October - Bishop's Visitation

On Saturday 23rd and yesterday Bishop Regan was staying in St. Joseph's, making his official visitation to the parish.

On Saturday evening he visited some of the sick and housebound parishioners, at home and in nursing homes. On Sunday he was main celebrant at the two Sunday Masses.

At both Masses we sang all the parts of the Mass, having been practicing for about three weeks, while at the 4.30pm Mass three new members were admitted to the Knights of St Columba (Province No. 37), an occasion we had deliberately timed to coincide with Bishop Regan's visit.

We managed to get some photographs and even filmed some sections. Here are a few of the still shots. The "movie" might take a bit longer to upload!
