The relics of Saint Therese of Lisieux arrived from France on the evening of Thursday 29th August 2019 and travelled in procession from St. Teresa’s Church, Newarthill to St. Francis Xavier Church, Carfin in procession.  Taylor High School pupils were prominent in this procession as bearers of the reliquary carrying the remains of Saint Therese, flag bearers in the procession and taking part in the procession.
