*Update 5th July 2021:

WATCH highlights of our ‘Do Lough Derg wherever you are’ weekend (3 – 5 July 2021) in the video below:

Fr La remarks on the weekend passed “a note of thanks and gratitude to all pilgrims who joined us in ‘Do Lough Derg wherever you are’. We pray for God’s blessings for your special prayers and intentions. As well as the gift of your prayer and devotion, adding to the ‘Storehouse of Prayer’ that Lough Derg has become over the centuries – we acknowledge and appreciate that many pilgrims have made since the time that registration opened. God is never outdone in generosity. Thank you one and all.”

You are asked to email us at info@loughderg.org or telephone 0 (0353) 719861518 to confirm that you have undertaken the Three Day Pilgrimage from wherever you are conscientiously and confirm your full postal address so that we can issue a memento.

Join Fr La and Team members for the Three Day Pilgrimage

Registration is now closed.

Friends, many of you will have heard our recent announcement on the difficult decision that the traditional Three Day Pilgrimage and the Autumn Day Retreats on Station Island will remain suspended for a second year in a row.

We are deeply conscious of the many pilgrims who are missing their annual visit to Lough Derg. Therefore, The Prior, Fr La would like to invite you to join him on Saturday 3rd July – Monday 5th July to ‘Do Lough Derg from wherever you are’.

Fr La and three companions will do the pilgrimage on the Island during these days. At the same time, some of our Lough Derg staff will be doing the pilgrimage in St. Mary’s Church in Pettigo, with a link available by webcam to wherever you are. Many people at home found this support invaluable last year.

Registration is now closed.

Once registered, you will receive a Pilgrimage Programme including the Order of Station.

The Lough Derg Pilgrim Path on the lough shore is open daily to those who wish to come and walk it in a prayerful pilgrim spirit.  Last August/September we piloted a new experience of a guided Pilgrimage on the Lough Shore, and we plan to offer that again this year on two weekend dates in July, and also in September – details later.

Fr La adds, “Remember that God is never outdone in generosity. Even if you can’t take on the full pilgrimage, perhaps you would join us in some moment of prayer those days. I will certainly be praying for you.

Slán go fóill.”

Fr La, Prior
