In his speech for the occasion, Fr Noel thanked the parishes of Harvey and Brunswick parishes for a super demonstration of country hospitality.

“The mood of the celebration was wonderful; the hall looked magnificent, the food delicious and abundant,” Fr Noel said.

“City visitors were flabbergasted at the way the celebration was organised and ran so well, and I was overwhelmed at the attendance and the generosity of my visitors,” he said.
