Jubilee Pilgrimage of 7 Altars of Repose | Cork City | Holy Thursday Evening

There will be a special walking Jubilee Year Pilgrimage of seven Cork City Churches on Holy Thursday Evening led by Bishop Fintan. 

This will begin after the 7.30pm Mass in The Cathedral with a brief period of adoration at the altar of repose. The pilgrim walk will then proceed to St Mary's, Holy Trinity, the South Parish, St Augustine's, St Francis', and finish with Night Prayer at Ss Peter and Paul's at 10pm. 

People are also welcome to make their own pilgrimage starting at any of the churches on the pilgrim route. 

This is a special way to mark the Jubilee year and as part of this there will be a plenary indulgence granted to those who participate in the Night Prayer in Ss Peter and Paul's at 10pm, whilst meeting the usual necessary conditions (see corkandross.org for more details).

CHRISM MASS

Bishop Fintan invites parishioners to join in the celebration of the Mass of Chrism on Holy Thursday (April 17^th) at 10am at the Cathedral of St. Mary and St. Anne, Cork.

At this Mass with priests and parishioners from the diocese, the Oils of Baptism and the Sick will be blessed, and Bishop Fintan will consecrate the Oil of Chrism, which will be used in parishes during the year. Bishop Fintan and our priests will also renew their priestly promises.

People from throughout the diocese are invited to join us in the Cathedral. 

It would be wonderful to see people from every parish there, especially those involved in ministry.
