Tell the parish family & friends about the 29th annual pilgrimage to the Shrine of Our Lady’s Martyrs of New France at Auriesville, NY.
All the ‘basic info at a glance’ in a hand-out is now available (in three formats), including a short ‘sample announcement’ for the parish blog or weekly bulletin.
“Pray without ceasing.” It’s never too early to join fellow pilgrims in prayer. To make it easier to remember and recite the short prayer each day, every pilgrim is asked to print it out, post it to the refrigerator in the kitchen, leave it at one’s night table next to the bed, tape it to the mirror in the bathroom … Ok, you get the idea.
“And whosoever shall give to drink to one of these little ones a cup of cold water only in the name of a disciple, amen I say to you, he shall not lose his reward.”Mt. x, 42
At the Pilgrimage for Restoration, pilgrims form in brigades and walk together in song, prayer, and fellowship.
Almost without being noticed, pilgrim-organizers (all volunteers) guide and shadow the sometimes mile-long column of brigades to assist them at every step of The Way, allowing pilgrims to concentrate on the “one thing alone necessary” – seeking and being with Christ.
