Always wanted to make it, but just couldn’t … find the time to get away? We hear you!
What’s so different this year that makes it time now to register?
Reason #1 The Pilgrimage is shorter by a full day: Friday-Sunday, instead of Wednesday-Saturday.
Reason #2 Better yet, as you just no doubt noticed, now the journey takes place over a ‘long weekend’. That makes it fit even more seamlessly into the life of working families and students.
Pilgrimages-past required almost a whole week away from school or work, Tuesday to Friday, and Saturday to boot.
But this year’s schedule makes getting away from work or school simpler: only part of Thursday and Friday.
And holy Mass finishes Sunday at 5:00 P.M., leaving time to get to airport or even to drive home, or back to school.
For those needing or wishing to take off Monday, isn’t that usually the preference – Friday & Monday- when taking personal days?
In every case, it will mean duties fulfilled – first to God, then to men – and all refreshed with grace.
Pilgrimage for Restoration. Come to restore. The rest will come.
