Holy Week and Easter 2026
Holy Week
Palm Sunday, 29th March
At 7.15pm on Saturday 28th March (after the Saturday vigil), there will be a solo guitar performance by Jonathan Byrd. The performance is titled 'Passio', and is a suite of meditations on the events of Christ's Passion, where we are taken though the emotions of agony, torment, tenderness, resignation and the ultimate faith in destiny according to God's will. This is sure to be a beautiful evening of prayerful music and a fitting start to Holy Week.
Mass is celebrated at 6pm (Saturday vigil) 8am, 9.30am (Family), 11am (Solemn), 12.30pm, 5.30pm, and 7pm (Young Adult Mass). In addition, there will be the usual United Service with Exchange of Palms with our neighbours at the Grosvenor Chapel at 10.45am at the palm tree in Mount Street Gardens.
