We are a community of Dominicans and part of the Irish Province of the Order of Preachers (The Dominican Order). Our life revolves around prayer and bringing others into a relationship with Jesus Christ. In light of this, our journey of faith with the people of Tralee has remained almost unchanged since the day we arrived here almost 800 years ago, in 1243
'The Irish Dominicans, 800 Years 1224 - 2024' will be available to purchase in Holy Cross Mass Office from next week.
This recent publication celebrates 800 years of Dominican presence in Ireland. A beautifully crafted book, it reflects on the Order’s mission of preaching, study, and service from its arrival in 1224 to the present day.
This month’s Children’s Rosary shall take place on Christmas Eve at 7:00pm, before the first Mass of Christmas at 7:30pm. This will be a Children’s Liturgy Mass. There will be no Children’s Rosary on the last Tuesday of this month. It will return again on January 27th at 6:15pm.
Our Monthly Mass in honour of Saint Carlo Acutis shall take place on Monday, 15th December 7:30pm in Holy Cross Church, Tralee. We look forward to welcoming this month’s celebrant and preacher Fr Eoin Casey OP, Prior of the Newbridge Community. Mass shall be followed by individual blessings with the first-class relic of Saint Carlo.
The artwork is one of several beautiful paintings presented to Holy Cross by pupils of Mercy Secondary School Mounthawk, Tralee last year for the visit of Monsignor Anthony with the relics of now Saint Carlo Acutis.
