The St Bernadette Relic is in Holycross Abbey today and tomorrow.
The Relic is making an extended visit to Ireland until November 5th and the Abbey visit is the final visit to a church in County Tipperary in the current visit.
A number of events have taken place over the course of the day with the Rosary being offered at 5pm and a Special Mass with Anointing of the Sick will be held at 7.30pm – this Mass will also be broadcast live on Tipp Mid West Radio.
A torchlight procession will be held if weather conditions are favourable at 8.30pm. Veneration of the relic will conclude at 10pm.
On Friday the relic will be on display between 8am and the 10am Novena and Farewell Mass.
The Relic will depart Holycross at Noon to travel to St Mary’s Cathedral in Kilkenny for two days.
