Pilgrimage of Faith with Mary and the Saints

 
 

There is a desire in many Catholics' heart to visit the places associated with our Lady and the Saints next to visiting the holy sites in the land where Jesus lived. We invite you to join us on a 12-day prayerful pilgrimage through southern Spain, across the Pyrenees to France, and arriving like pilgrims of old in Rome. Marian highlights will be Montserrat, Zaragosa and of course Lourdes. Followed by the sites associated with Ignatius of Loyola, Jose Maria Escriva, Carlo Acutis, Francis and Clare of Assisi, and Padre Pio.

What will make this pilgrimage different? We are aiming for a small group (only one bus) for closeness and a family environment. We will have charismatic worship in our Masses, Bible-based reflections, and silent moments for personal prayer.
