Scout And Guide Carol Service At St Fin Barre’s Cathedral, Cork.

Over 400 people gathered for the Cork County Scout and Guide pre–Christmas service in Saint Fin Barre’s Cathedral recently. Children and young people from Scouting and Guiding organisations from all over Cork County brought along toys for distribution by St Vincent de Paul Cork, the Cork Lions Club and for the Children’s Ward of Cork University Hospital.

The Dean of Cork, Very Revd Nigel Dunne presided and was assisted by Fr Dave Kenneally (Scouting Ireland Chaplain). Readings and prayers were led by Cubs, Scouts, Brownies and Guides and hundreds of toys were presented at the High Altar at the end of the service.
