Pilgrimage to the Chrism Mass, St Carthage’s Cathedral, Lismore
Every 25 years, the Church celebrates a Jubilee Year. Jubilees are a wonderful opportunity to deepen our faith and experience the hope and mercy of our loving God ever more keenly through pilgrimage, prayer and acts of mercy.
We can also potentially receive a Plenary Indulgence in this Holy Year. There are a few ways to receive this indulgence. Learn more by reading the Decree on the Granting of Indulgence During the Jubilee Year
Over 20 parishioners made the pilgrimage to St Carthage’s Cathedral for the Chrism Mass on Monday 14th April. This was made possible by Mr Gavin Dykes, principal of Mt St Patrick College Murwillumbah, offering us the use of the college mini-bus, as well as graciously driving us there and back.
Bishop Greg granted all who attended the Chrism Mass a plenary indulgence. This was granted under the usual conditions, as part of this special time of grace and renewal in the life of the Church.
We are hopeful that we can organise another pilgrimage during this Jubilee Year, so stay tuned!
