St. Mary’s Cathedral

St Mary’s Cathedral will close temporarily from August 17 to allow essential conservation, accessibility and renewal works as part of the next phase in its development as the Cathedral of the Archdiocese of Dublin.

Following a competitive procurement process, a “Letter of Intent” has been signed with the main contractor. The construction budget is 17 million euro (excl. VAT). Planning permission was received from Dublin City Council last October.

During the closure period, major diocesan liturgies will take place in St Andrew’s Church, Westland Row. The Palestrina Choir will be based at the College Chapel on the All Hallows Campus of DCU, by kind permission of the University. Parish and sacramental life will continue at St Joseph’s Church, Berkeley Road, where the Cathedral Girls’ Choir will also be based.

Lay Led Prayer Service

As we enter the August holiday season, we would like to advise that our weekly Monday Lay Led Prayer will take a seasonal break.

Can we take this opportunity to thank all the volunteer Leaders, Readers and everyone who supported us. 

We pray that the summer brings you rest, joy and many blessings and we look forward to welcoming everyone when we resume in September.

World Grandparents Day

World day for grandparents and the elderly

This Sunday, July 26, is the Sixth World Day for Grandparents and the Elderly. Grandparents and the Elderly are the backbone of every parish. They are people deeply committed to their faith and to the mission of the Church. At this link can be found resources from the Irish Catholic Bishops’ Conference’s Council for Marriage and the Family, including:

  1. Resources offered by the Dicastery for Laity, Family & Life.
  2. A Newsletter insert from the Catholic Grandparents Association regarding this Sunday’s Pilgrimage to Knock Shrine
  3. The Message of Pope Leo XIV for the Sixth World Day for Grandparents & the Elderly on the theme “I will never forget you” (Is. 49:15)

The Council for Marriage and the Family is encouraging as many parishes as possible to celebrate World Day for Grandparents and the Elderly this year. This can be done very simply by having an older person lead us in God’s Word, using the Prayer of the Faithful from the Dicastery resources, having grandparents involved in the Offertory Procession and using the Prayer for the 6th World Day as a Post Communion Reflection.
