Pope Benedict XVI awarded the Bene Merenti medal to our Sacristan, Michael Dillon in appreciation of his many years of faithful service to the Church, especially here in our parish.
The presentation was made at a special mass on April 21st, 2013 in the parish church by Moderator of Clontarf / Dollymount Parishes, Fr. Pat McManus.
The mass was followed by a reception in the parish hall, where well wishers joined Michael and his wife Meadhbh to mark the special day.
