The Society of St Pius X are hosting their annual Mass Rock Pilgrimage in Ballyholland on 15 August with Mass celebrated at 12 noon at Ballyholland Mass Rock.
It is believed the Ballyholland site was used as a Mass Rock in the seventeenth century during penal times and in more recent years both Newry Cathedral Parish and the Society of St Pius X hold an annual Mass at the location. The Society of St Pius X founded in 1970 by Archbishop Lefebvre practice the traditional Latin Mass.
There will be a procession after the Mass, followed by a barbecue at 1:30pm Any musicians are asked to bring their instruments along.
Blue Badge holders can access the shrine car park while all others are asked to park at Rascals and Ruffians Nursery car park from where it is a 15-20 min walk to the Mass Rock.
