Is designed to encourage people to undertake pilgrimages to three main holy shrines in Ireland. Croagh Patrick, Lough Derg, and Knock Shrine Pilgrims can obtain the passport locally and have it stamped at each of the three sites they visit. Those who complete the pilgrimage to all three locations can receive a special commemorative Jubilee Year Pilgrims Medal. This is a special way to participate in the Jubilee Year 2025 by making a pilgrimage to these important Irish spiritual locations.
(The passport stamp for the Croagh Pilgrimage can be obtained at Westport Parish Office, Murrisk Community Café or the Hut at the Foot of the Reek in Murrisk Car Park.)
