Annual Day of Devotion to our Lady of Clonfert – Sunday May 31st 2026
In 2022, when the Shrine of Our Lady of Clonfert was erected as a Diocesan Shrine – the last day of the Month of May was declared a special day of devotion to Our Lady of Clonfert.
This Sunday, a special Camino Pilgrimage will depart from Meelick Church to arrive at the Shrine of Our Lady of Clonfert for the Final Mass of Thanksgiving for the May Devotions at 6.30pm.
Parishes are encouraged to mark this day with special devotions. Individuals, families, groups are encouraged to visit the Shrine in these days and pray the prayer to Our Lady of Clonfert.
Prayer to Our Lady of Clonfert
I come to you, as one of your children, who will never forget the importance of a woman like you. I come to say thanks for the past and the present and ask you to bless me in the future. You know me, you know how I live and you know my needs. Please help me especially when I need you most. I have problems, worries and anxieties the same as everyone else – help me to cope. So often I would just love to give up when life hurts me and people betray me, but give me the courage never to lose heart. Bless my family, my life and my friends. Help me, no matter what happens to me in life, to believe, to trust and to hope.
Our Lady of Clonfert, pray for us.
