For many pilgrims, the 28 October is the only day to come and visit us – and what a wonderful day of hope, love and joy that we had.

We were very lucky to welcome a large pilgrimage group, plus many friends of Saint Jude throughout the day. Fr. Patrick O’Keeffe, O.Carm celebrated the first Mass at 12.30pm and Fr. Gerard Walsh, O.Carm the second Mass at 5.30pm.

Thank you to everyone who visited us during the three days and, of course, to the Carmelite friars and Shrine Office staff and volunteers who served pilgrims throughout.
