The beginning of June each year marks the start of the traditional Three Day Pilgrimage Season at Lough Derg. In normal times the June holiday weekend on Station Island would be busy with hundreds of pilgrims crossing over to take off their shoes and begin their ‘Station.’
This year the Prior, Fr La Flynn, will move alone to the island to keep a prayerful presence there until pilgrims are able to return, please God, in the later months of the summer.
