Bishop Denis is delighted to announce the dates for confirmation ceremonies he will be celebrating later in this school year.
The theme he has chosen for this year is ‘Digging Deeper into Confirmation’.
2020 will see Bishop Denis travel to 35 parishes and officiate at 56 ceremonies.
Many thanks to teachers, parish staff and clergy who have helped to finalise dates and make arrangements.
