Who doesn’t love a movie night?
Our regular movie screenings are ideal for bringing friends too, particularly those who don’t go to church. They’re just good fun. By the way, AMDG stands for, ‘Ad maiorem Dei gloriam’, the Latin motto of Jesuits, which means, ‘For the greater glory of God.’
End the week with a time of prayer and reflection.
Friday Night Candlelight is a simple, candlelit evening of prayer, a moment for you to slow down and reconnect with God. This is an evening of Eucharistic adoration, when Jesus is present to us in a special way. Confessions are also available.
Mass 6pm | Holy Hour 6:30 - 7:30pm
Bring what’s on your heart to God over nine days of prayer.
Since 1832, the Novena of Grace has taken place here at St. Francis Xavier's Catholic Church. This novena draws together people from all over Dublin for nine days of prayer, in which we bring our human needs and hopes to the Lord and open ourselves to His grace. Each day of the novena, we gather for Mass, hear input on living the Christian life from a visiting preacher and pray the novena prayers.
Daily Masses | 11am, 1pm, 7.30pm
