Launch of Jubilee of Youth Pilgrimage to Rome  

Bishop Fintan Gavin will lead a group of 50 young people (18 to 30 years) to Rome this summer.

Mark your diary from the 28th July to the 4th August for the Jubilee of Youth Pilgrimage! It is a once in a life-time opportunity for young people to not only meet the Pope and to experience the Eternal City, but also to be encouraged and inspired as they meet other young people of faith from all continents.

Hundreds of thousands of young people are expected to travel and to experience this Jubilee Celebration, which only happens every 25 years in the Church. The pilgrimage will cost €550 per person (plus fundraising) and will include seven nights half board at the Irish College, travel insurance, a 20kg bag, and a pilgrim kit. 

Coome to the launch evening and learn more on Thursday 6th February at 7.30pm in Mardyke House, Cork (T12 W8RP).

Parishes are encouraged to promote this opportunity and support young pilgrims in their preparations for this extraordinary experience of the universal Church.
