Munich Boys5 Choir & Munich Girls1 Choir. At 8.00pm on Wednesday 29th August these world famous choirs will perform in The Cathedral. Cavan. Why not go along for a wonderful musical evening. People in all three parish areas have a very special tradition of having Masses said for their deceased relatives. However, it is at times difficult to find space for all requests. So it is the practice in some parishes to share anniversaries which occur at weekends if there are a number of requests for the same date. Schedules can become particularly difficult at weekends during the Winter / Spring period. In such circumstances it may be necessary for families to share a weekend mass.
