George Hamilton IV Gospel Concert
Sincere thanks are due to everyone who came along on the evening of 14th February to Templeport Community for our Country Gospel Concert with George Hamilton IV. George was so gracious in his manner and delighted us all with a selection of good old fashioned country numbers, gospel songs and favourite hymns.
What a man, and what a blessing to us all. The evening was organised at extremely short notice as George had a spare night in his itinerary which cropped up unexpectedly.
Through his willingness to serve and your generosity we were able to raise just over €1,125 for St Christopher’s Hospice, Cavan. Thanks are also due to the team of volunteers who helped out in preparation for the evening.
 
There are lots more pictures taken at the concert at:
