In the video, Fr Wright is seen on the left and Deacon Kevin Devine on the right with Noel McCann, the sacristan, in the middle.

Patricia told Armagh I: “I recorded the live stream at the end of mass. They usually do something at the end of each week.

“Noel has done a dance the last few weeks so I decided to record it this week as I thought he would do something again and by chance he had the other two lined up to dance as well!

“We all need a good laugh at these strange times.”
