‘Do this in memory of me’

The “Do This in Memory of Me” Quilt replaced the Glencorrib Altar Quilt on Holy Thursday 2020.

In the midst of a global pandemic, this quilt is dedicated to all those helping us through this crisis and to the memory of all those who have died.

Let us hope and pray that further spread of the virus can be minimised and that a cure will soon be found.
