Making St. Brigid’s Crosses

Published on January 31, 2025

This Saturday we celebrate the Feast of St Brigid. The great tradition of making St Brigid’s Cross making is alive and well in Ennis. For the past three evenings, a team of volunteers have gathered to make Crosses which are available for sale this weekend at all masses and in both the Friary and Parish Offices at 1 for €4 or 3 for €10. The proceeds will go to the Cathedral Renovation appeal.
During the week the Transition Year students from Rice College joined members of Ennis Active Retirement for a session of cross making. Our thanks to all concerned for keeping the story of St Brigid alive.
