Home / Pilgrimages / Pilgrimage of Prayer and Solidarity to the Holy Land

 

This pilgrimage is full!

2013 will offer two Holy Land Pilgrimages and others; please call us for details.

A PILGRIMAGE IS a journey of faith and is an ancient practice in the Church. A pilgrimage is an eternal investment which has an everlasting reward. You will see, touch and experience the sites of the Bible, the sites of our Lord’s life and our Lady’s life. You will have the privilege to prayerfully retrace the footprints of Jesus, and meet the local people, Catholics living in Jerusalem, the living stones, the Custodians of the Holy Land – the Franciscans & other religious communities. You will be introduced to the various cultures of the Holy Land and the history of our Church.
