EASTER DAWN MASS 2026
This year’s Easter Dawn Mass will take place on Easter Sunday morning at 6.30 am at The Sacred Heart Church Cork.
All are more than Welcome to take place for this very special Occasion.
As the sun rises over the grounds of the Sacred Heart Church on the Western Road in Cork, MSC priests gather together with the local congregation to rejoice in the blessings of Easter Sunday morning. Candlelight gives way to sunlight as the dawn breaks over the horizon, uniting all those present in faith and gratitude in this spiritual celebration.
Friends and benefactors of the Missionaries of the Sacred Heart are remembered specially in this dawn blessing, in acknowledgement of the joint effort that allows our MSC missionaries across the world to provide support, encouragement, and help to vulnerable people who live in the shadow of fear, poverty, illness, and injustice.
From darkness into light, the Easter Dawn Mass is a beautifully symbolic ceremony where we give thanks for our daily blessings, and look to the future with faith and hope.
