| Certificates
There
may be reason during the year to call upon the church to have various certificates issued. To enroll a child in a Catholic School, and for the enrolling of candidates for First Communion and Confirmation for example, it may be necessary to have a Baptismal Certificate written out in child’s name. For marriage, both within and outside the parish, it will be necessary to have a new Baptism cert issued as well as one for Confirmation. These will be issued from the parishes where they took place. You will also need a Letter of Freedom from each of the parishes where you have resided for more than six months after you have reached the age of eighteen. These will be necessary to complete the P re-Nuptial Form in preparation for your wedding. In this parish all such records are held in the parish archive which is in the church, and not in the parish office or presbyteries. When calling for such certificates it would be ideal to first call into the sacristy when it is opened for various services. Finbarr the sacristan will be only too ready to assist you. You may also call to the parish office where the necessary particulars can be taken and the certificate will be available to you the following day for collection or posting. |
