The annual Senior Citizens outing organised by the ladies of St. Cualan’s Committee took place on Thursday last March 25th. This is an annual event where the group have the opportunity to receive the sacrament of Penance for Easter. The food and the friendship that they receive from the Cistercian Monks always makes this a very enjoyable and memorable occasion.

Congratulations!!
