Last week some of our Primary Four class celebrated the gift of the Sacrament of Reconciliation.  We were excited to receive the Sacrament during this ‘Centenary of Catholic Education’ year.   Father Neil McGarrity of St Thomas the Apostle, in Riddrie, and our own Father Joe celebrated the service, calmed our nerves and offered us absolution from our sins.  We were grateful to Father Neil for taking the time away from his own parish and, as ever, were grateful for all the instruction Father Joe had provided to guide us through this important Sacrament. We were blessed to receive the support of our families along with the prayers of our classmates and teachers.  We are now looking forward to preparing for the Sacrament of the Eucharist.
