The Rector of Kilmoremoy, the Revd Stephen McWhirter, led the worship assisted by another Parish Reader, Mr Clive Moore. Also present were the Revd Jennifer McWhirter and the Revd Canon Doris Clements.
Each of the four Readers took part in the liturgy. John, Caroline and Amanda read the Lessons and Nicola led the intercessions.
The Dean of Tuam, Killala and Achonry, the Very Revd. Alistair Grimason, who is also Diocesan Warden of Readers, presided at the licensing and commissioning and also preached the sermon.
