First Holy Communion 2021
First Holy Communion will take place in both St. Joseph’s and The Church of Our Lady Star of the Sea on Saturday 25th September at 11 am.
This late date is also due to necessary safety reasons but easier to arrange due to First Holy Communion Students remaining in their Primary Schools. The Family numbers able to attend will be clarified by later Government rulings.
Parish Registers
Information in Parish Registers is maintained only for SACRAMENTAL reasons. Due to laws governing data protection, Parishes are only allowed to share such sacramental information with members of the family named therein.
Since Parish Registers cannot guarantee birth records or share genealogical information which is private to families, requests for non-sacramental information may not be accepted because families are entitled to their privacy.
Those who wish to obtain similar information would have more detailed and legal sources in records held by the State.
