National Novena March 17 – 25th 2020

A National Novena to Our Lady of Knock will take place from St. Patrick’s Day 17 March 2020 to the Feast of the Annunciation, March 25 2020   

We invite everyone to join with us for the Novena in which we pray for a swift end to the corona virus, COVID-19, the protection of all people against it, all who are ill at this time and all medical and civil authorities dealing with the virus.

Archbishop Eamon Martin is inviting priests and bishops to join with him, after the Angelus on the Feast of Annunciation, 25 March, in consecrating Ireland and her people to the Immaculate Heart of Mary for protection from the coronavirus.

We invite you to join us online from Knock Shrine for two sessions daily:

12 noon: Angelus, Mass and Novena prayers

7.00pm: Rosary

7.30pm: Mass and Novena prayers followed by Eucharistic blessing

You can also join in the Novena by writing an online petition and lighting a candle which will then be lit at the Shrine for you.

Our Lady of Knock, St. Joseph and St. John the Evangelist protect our country and bless you all at this time.
