IT was a memorable Easter Sunday for young
Robert Mackie, who celebrated two Sacraments for the first time. Robert
was first of all Confirmed during morning Mass at Our Lady and St
Cuthbert's Church in Maybole. Then he received the Eucharist, or
Communion, for the first time. Robert is a P4 pupil at St Cuthbert's
Primary School in the town. And schoolmates formed a special choir for the
occasion, with guitar accompaniment by Mr Gerry Murphy. Father Jim Hayes
conducted the Mass wearing robes he received when attending a Millennium
celebration in Rome, when the Pope blessed nearly two-and-half million
young people. From the Ayrshire Post 12th April 2002. |
