Kylemore Abbey (possible venue)
Kylemore Abbey is located in the Kylemore Pass in Connemara. One of Kylemore Abbey's most famous features is its miniature
cathedral, built in 1870 and known locally as the Gothic church. Today, the abbey is home to the Irish order of
Benedictine nuns. They bought the house in 1920, having fled
their convent in war-torn Belgium in 1914.
Knock Shrine (possible venue)The story of Knock began on the August 21,1879 when Our Lady,
St. Joseph and St. John the Evangelist appeared at the south gable of Knock Parish Church. Fifteen people, young and old witnessed the apparition. From
this miraculous occurrence Knock has grown to the status of
an internationally recognized Marian Shrine. The personal
pilgrimage of Pope John Paul II in 1979, commemorating the centenary of the apparition,
inspired an even greater devotion to the Shrine and endorsed the
indelible seal of Vatican approval. Mother Teresa of Calcutta visited the Shrine in June of 1993. One
and a half million pilgrims visit the Shrine annually
