Imeall Boirne Youth Gathering.On Friday nights, a group of secondary school youths from the Imeall Bourne Parishes gather in Ruan Community Centre from 7.30-9:00pm. They enjoy time together, meet new people of their own age group, and have ‘gadget free’ time, as phones are not allowed. One of their outings last year was to the R.N.L.I. Lifeboat Station in Galway, to see the valuable contribution of the volunteers to the service. The Club is based on the values of N.E.T. Ministries (www.netministty.ie). At Easter, every year, the group goes on a Surfing Retreat to Donegal, which all participants have found to be a very special time. All info from Mary Wynne or Ellen Jones. “You Shall Be My Witness” Confirmation Programme for all Confirmation Candidates takes place this Sunday February 3rd from 7:00pm to 8:00pm, in St. Patrick’s Hall, Corofin.
