Every year two girls are chosen to go to Lourdes, with
the Cloyne Diocesan Pilgrimage. They are chosen from
transition year. This year three girls went, Marian
and Elaine who were sent by the
school and Diane who paid for herself to go.
They acted as youth helpers. They went for a week in
the summer. While they were there their main duty was
to help the sick and old, taking them to Mass and where
ever they wanted or needed to go.
I found the pilgrimage very enjoyable and loved helping
the pilgrims there. It was saddening to see so many old
and sick people. It was especially sad to see sick
children. It was a great experience and it was amazing
how the people there adapted to the youth. I hope to get
the chance to go again as I thoroughly enjoyed the
experience.
