The Easter Lily pin is worn to commemorate all those who gave their lives for Irish freedom. It was first created by Cumann na mBan in 1926 to raise funds for the Irish Republican Prisoners’ Dependants Fund.

On the 100th anniversary of the Easter Lily as a symbol of Irish freedom, please join us at Holy Cross for the annual Easter Commemoration. Assemble at the main gate at 11:00am.

This year’s featured speaker is Sinn Féin TD Pa Daly.
