Pilgrim Passport: Follow the Diocesan Jubilee Pilgrim Trail!
In this Jubilee Year, the late Pope Francis invited us to be Pilgrims of Hope. The Diocese of Waterford & Lismore Pilgrim’s Path Passport offers us a beautiful opportunity to be pilgrims in our own Diocese: why not gather friends and family to join you also?  Seven sites across the diocese have been chosen by the people of the Diocese as Jubilee Year locations for pilgrimage and can be visited in any order and at any stage throughout the year. Passports are available in Churches throughout the diocese or can be downloaded and printed at home from
www.waterfordlismore.ie/jubilee2025 where more information on each site is also available
