    Tully Pilgrimage 2000 Competition
    Art and Poetry Competitions

    On Sunday, 21st May, this year, people and clergy from ten local Christian Churches will set out from their own parishes and walk to the old Tully Church and Celtic Crosses in Lehaunstown as part of their Jubilee Celebrations.

    The parishes taking part are: Ballybrack (St Alphonsus & Columba), Ballybrack (St Matthias), Cabinteely, Foxrock, Johnstown, Kill o' the Grange, Kill o' the Grange (Holy Family) Loughlinstown, Rathmichael, Tullow. It is hoped that this will be a memorable day, as we together, Christians of many traditions, will celebrate 2000 years of Christ's presence among us.

    In conjunction with this historic Pilgrimage, St. Brigid's Parish is running three Competitions with prizes for the winners and runners-up.

      1. Make a collage (drawings or photographs) of Tully and the ten Churches (or of something that is unique to each of the Churches).
