As a result of Fr. Dan's quiz recently, I thought I would pass on some of the questions : - 

(1).  According to the stone over the door in Granagh Church, what Bishop dedicated the church in the 1870s ? 

(2).  Fr. Dermot McCarthy died on 10th August, in what year ?    1993.   1995.   1996.

(3).  Behind the Alter in Granagh Church are three stained glass windows, depicting St. Joseph, Our Lady and the Sacred Heart -                    But which one occupies the centre window ?
