Altars of reposeAltars of repose

There will be a special walking Jubilee Year Pilgrimage to seven Cork City Churches on Holy Thursday Evening 17 April led by Bishop Fintan

This will begin after the 7.30pm Mass of the Lord’s Supper in The Cathedral with a brief period of adoration at the altar of repose.

The pilgrim walk will then proceed to St Mary's on Pope’s Quay, Holy Trinity on Fr. Mathew Quay, St. Finbarr’s South on Dunbar St., St Augustine's on Washington Street, St Francis Church on Liberty Street and on to Ss Peter and Paul's. The pilgrimage will finish with Night Prayer 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 necessary conditions.

These are that a person go to Confession, receive Holy Communion, perform an act of charity and pray for the Pope’s intentions. The indulgence can be applied to the souls in Purgatory.
