The Northern Ireland city kicked off a worldwide Eucharistic procession honoring the Blessed Mother, coordinated at the same time across six continents.
Amid torrential rain and wind, thousands participated in the century-old procession through the streets of Ireland's second largest city.
Many hundreds of Catholics joined the Eucharistic procession in D.C., which is part of the National Eucharistic Pilgrimage traveling the country.
Amid heat and humidity, parents and grandparents packed their little ones into strollers and carriers and brought them out to view the Eucharistic pilgrimage as it made its way through the capital.
More than 10,000 Catholics have participated in the Cabrini Route of the procession, which has traveled up the Eastern Seaboard and visited multiple dioceses.
'The best part, for me, of the Eucharistic procession is to see Jesus walking with us,' Father Charles Trullols said.
An estimated 2,000 people took part in the annual procession traversing the streets of New York City.
