Adoremus 2020, a joint initiative between the National Apostolate of Eucharistic Adoration and the Irish Bishops' Conference, was due to be held in Knock on 19 and 20 June 2020 and would have been focussed on preparing for the International Eucharistic Congress in Budapest. Due to Covid-19 restrictions, Adoremus 2020 in Knock has been cancelled and the Eucharistic Congress has been postponed until 2021. Adoremus will, however, take place online from 2pm this Saturday 20 June.

A number of speakers, including Sister Virginia Joy of the Sisters of Life New York, Archbishop Eamon Martin and Bishop Kevin Doran have recorded talks and prayer moments to allow us to join together virtually.

Bishop Kevin Doran, Bishop of Elphin said: "We greatly appreciate the assistance of Father Bill Kemmy and the team at iCatholic in making this possible. This is an important celebration of faith in the life of the local and Universal Church."

Adoremus will conclude with Rosary and the celebration Mass and Benediction by Father Richard Gibbons, PP of Knock.
