10-Day Pilgrimage to the Holy Land | February 18–27, 2024

Optional 3-Day Extension to Jordan: February 27–March 1, 2024


Dear Friends,

On this pilgrimage to the Holy Land you will join those pilgrims who, for two thousand years, “have gone in search of the “footprints’ of God that land, rightly called “holy, pursuing them as it were in the stones, the hills, the waters which provided the setting for the earthy life of the Son of God.” (Pope John Paul II, 1999).

You will pray in Nazareth at the place where the “Word became flesh” (John 1:14) through Mary’s “yes.” You will visit the Basilica of the Nativity in Bethlehem, walk around Manger Square, and visit Shepherd’s Field. There will be the opportunity to meditate at the Sea of Galilee. We will retrace the steps of Jesus through the holy city of Jerusalem: The Upper Room, Gethsemane, the Way of the Cross, Calvary, and the site of the Empty Tomb! Those who wish to continue with us on the optional extension to Jordan will visit Mount Nebo, Madaba, Petra, Amman, and Jerash as well.

Our days will include Mass, personal prayer, and a chance to mingle with the locals. We will pray for a just peace in the land where Jesus, the Prince of Peace, was born! Please join us on this extraordinary journey of faith. It is our hope that you will say “YES” to this invitation and the most invaluable gift that you can ever give yourself: a pilgrimage to the Holy Land!
