With Mass services cancelled, and older believers feeling isolated without the sense of community that weekly church trips offer so many, some people in Cork have taken matters into their own hands as they set off in a 'Rosary-mobile' across the city.
A video posted to Twitter by a Dublin restaurant owner, shows a car patrolling the riverside, decked out with a statue of Our Lady of Lourdes on its roof and hooked up to speakers performing a decade of the Rosary.
In the short clip, a man's voice can be heard saying the end lines of The Hail Mary-- "Holy Mary, mother of God, pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death, Amen."
A woman's voice then comes on over the speakers beginning the prayer again: "Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee..." As the car continues down the road, the fading prayer can be heard continuing as the man's voice picks up again.
