This year, the Diocese of Cork and Ross invites you to take part in a truly historic moment:

the 100th anniversary of the Eucharistic Procession in Cork on Sunday 7th June

First held in 1926, the Eucharistic Procession was a wish amongst the people for unity, peace and reconciliation after the Civil War and the War of Independence. They asked Bishop Colahan to have a Eucharistic Procession, bringing Jesus in the Eucharist to the streets of our city. This is an opportunity to witness to our faith while being a part of a living tradition and the history of our city.

One hundred years on, we gather as a diocesan family to unite in prayer and thanksgiving, and to honour Jesus in the Eucharist. The Procession will begin at 3pm at the Cathedral of St Mary and St Anne and finish with benediction of the Blessed Sacrament at the Grand Parade.
