Congratulations to all the children from Gaelscoil Bhríde Dúrlas and Scoil Angela Thurles who celebrated their First Holy Communion in the Catherdal recently, a beautiful and memorable day for families, teachers, and the wider community. ✨

The Cathedral has long been a place where life’s most important moments are marked, and days like this continue that cherished tradition, filled with joy, pride, and togetherness. 💛

No matter where you are in Thurles, somehow the Cathedral always finds a way to appear ❤️

Mary Anne Dunne (Tinover, Loughmore) and Richard “Dickie” Coppinger (Bohernanave) on their wedding day, celebrating their marriage in the Cathedral of the Assumption.

Mary Anne was the daughter of John and Margaret Dunne, while Dickie was the son of Mary Maher Coppinger and Michael Coppinger of Bohernanave.

A lovely reminder of the many families whose stories are rooted in the Cathedral, where generations have come together to mark life’s most important moments. 💛

Thank you to Mikhail Copper for sharing this special memory with us.
