Gathering at St Canice's RC Church
More than 300 people took part in this year’s Good Friday Walk, led by Bishop of Ferns Ger Nash and Fr Willie Purcell.
The walk began at St Canice’s Church and proceeded in a spirit of reflection and prayer to the Capuchin Friary Church, where participants gathered for prayer around the Cross. Fr Willie Purcell described the event as 'deeply moving'.
“It was very moving to see so many people walking in silence on Good Friday, and to witness people along High Street pausing with reverence as the procession passed,” he said.
