The Gospel Drama Group presents a mini-Gospel drama as well as doing readings and prayers at the Children's Mass (10.00 am) every Sunday. The idea is to involve the children in the Mass in a very real way and to make it an enjoyable and meaningful event, not just for the children in the group but for everybody in attendance - young and old!

The group is organised by 4 to 5 very dedicated adults and there are about twenty children involved. The group operates during school-term and meets weekly on Thursday at 7.00 pm in the Church to prepare and rehearse for the following Sunday. The children involved are from 3rd Class and up, and they each take on different parts in the Mass on a rota basis.

This is a lovely opportunity for children to take part in drama activities on a very informal basis. They can begin by saying a short prayer and build up to playing a role in the drama. The children develop a deeper understanding and appreciation of the Mass, the Gospel stories and readings. This is a great group for socialising and making new friends and they have a "fab" end-of-year party!

So if you've reached 3rd Class or higher, or you're a grown-up with a sense of adventure, and would like to be part of this, contact Eva Coffey, Tel 4941715 or Carol Ann Copland, c/o The Presbytery, Tel 4941204, Email:
