Join this Parish wide Pilgrimage with the Prince of Peace Choir and Father John on this once-in-a-lifetime travel experience to visit Ireland. Fr. John will accompany the group as spiritual adviser and will celebrate daily mass for the group at many great cathedrals as well as village churches.
We will visit Dublin, Enniskillen, Knock, Galway, Killarney, and Waterford seeing many, many sights including: the Cliffs of Moher, the Dingle Peninsula, Ring of Kerry, Belleek Pottery, Waterford Crystal, Glendalough and the lost Book of Kells.
One of the highlights will be visiting the town of Enniskillen, home to many of the teen-agers who have visited Madison through the Ulster Project over the past summers. A choir performance with the Prince of Peace Choir joining Irish choirs to raise funds for the Ulster Project will be hosted in Enniskillen.
Another highlight will be our visit to the Causey Farm to learn to be ‘Irish for a Day.’ We will see a sheep dog demonstration, bake Irish Brown Soda Bread, learn an Irish dance and visit the peat bog.

We have created a wonderful itinerary that circles much of the island and gives you great opportunities to visit many exciting cities as well as the countryside of Ireland. Details of the itinerary follow in this website complete with color pictures of many of the sites we will visit.
