You can find the full programme for the Octave (in English) here. Our Lady, Consoler of the Afflicted, pray for us. Amen

The Octave in honour of Our Lady, Consoler of the Afflicted, is being celebrated online this year: it goes without saying that we are all afflicted at the moment in one way or another, so our prayers to the Patron of Luxembourg are especially pertinent. The English-speaking Mass for the Octave is on this Friday, 8th May at 18:30, broadcast live from the cathedral. The live stream can be found on the archdiocesan website. We’ll shortly publish the music for this Mass so you can join in the singing from your own home. The readings will be those of Friday, and can be found at universalis.

Join us for Mass — we keep up our solidarity in the faith!

(As a result, there will be no online Night Prayer on Friday evening)

Please feel welcome to join the tea and chat session tomorrow (Wednesday) at 11.00am.  It is the same Zoom link as last week.  Please email the parish office for the Zoom link if you do not have it: parish@catholic.lu

Look forward to seeing you online!

David Coughlan, one of our altar servers, has recently had an article published in Luxembourg City Magazine, on how to survive lockdown successfully.

Beginning this evening at 18:00, we will have 30 minutes of devotion to Our Lady every day during May — May being the traditional month (along with October) for honouring the Mother of Our Lord.

We begin with Compline (Night Prayer) — the daily texts can be found at universalis.com and we will sing well-known hymns to Our Lady.

Apologies to those who were ‘at’ Mass today — I made a mistake in announcing the time. Saturdays and Thursdays, I celebrate Mass in the evening with the Redemptorist community, so our online devotions to Our Lady on those days will be at 19:00.

If you have particular hymns, prayers or stories which we might include in these liturgies, please send them to the parish office. I look forward to seeing you there!
