Statue of St. Brigid.
Sunday 17th October saw the re-dedication of the statue of St Brigid that used to stand above the main door of the Cross & Passion convent. The statue was subsequently gifted by the sisters to the parish, has been restored, and is now located immediately behind the church, in fond memory of their dedicated service to our parish and community.

I embrace you as if you were already in my heart

Please do not let me ever by separated from you.”
