Eighty years after the first International Eucharistic Congress in Dublin, the religious festival begins again, this time including our very own St James’s Church in the festivities. All over the country parishes are staging events designed to bring people from all countries together in common cause.
A Pilgrim walk as been organized around seven churches in the city. Pilgrims are given a passport which is stamped in participating churches as they get an opportunity to see some of Dublin’s finest churches and a pleasurable walk around the city. Below is a list of participating churches and their mass times.
