EASTER DAWN SERVICE CHANGE OF VENUE
Kilbroney Forest Park will be closed from 1.00pm on Saturday through to Sunday afternoon. This means Presbytery will be unable to hold the Dawn Service at the Cloughmore Stone on Easter Sunday morning. We will now meet at the shore opposite Victoria Square in Rostrevor, just a few hundred yards away from the entrance to Kilbroney Forest Park, at 6.30am and breakfast will be served in Rostrevor Presbyterian Church Hall afterwards.
