All are invited to join with Bishop Crean in the celebration of Holy Mass at the Shrine of St. Gobnait, June 8th at 3pm.
Whitsun or Pentecost Sunday has long been associated with the honouring of our local Gaeltacht Saint. Devotion to St. Gobnait is very much alive with visitors praying the rounds daily and visiting the Holy Well. It is a special place of pilgrimage for those praying for the sick.
We look forward to seeing you and ask that you come in good time as parking will be limited at the Shrine.
Join us for a nourishing retreat as we celebrate the 10th anniversary of Laudato Si' in the beautiful surroundings of Ballyvaloo. Be inspired by the richness of ecological spirituality
"May our struggles and our concern for this planet never take away the joy of our hope" (Laudato Si', 244)
€250 per person (accommodation and all meals included in price)

This event is for Young Adults from the age of 18-30 and is a follow on from the “Into the Deep” event which took place in Clongowes on Saturday 22nd June last year. This event is for all Young Adults but there will be a special welcome for those who are travelling to Rome for the Jubilee of Youth and will be part of their preparation, however it is open to all Young Adults
This year, we are blessed to partner with the team at Knock Shrine, allowing us to expand our reach and welcome even more young adults from across the country. What began as an invitation-only event last year has now grown into a larger gathering that promises to nourish and inspire the faith of young Catholics throughout Ireland
Mother Magdalen Taylor, now Venerable, arrived by train with 2 Sisters, on 21 June 1875. There will be a re-enactment of this event at the Old Station recalling the welcome the Sisters received from the Parish Priest, Fr R Seymour, and the people of the Parish. We will walk along to the Church where a short Prayers will be said.
Next there will be an extensive and interesting Exhibition in Carrigtwohill Community Centre along with tea and cakes aplenty.
You are all cordially invited to come and enjoy meeting old acquaintances and sharing more stories.
