Marian Pilgrimage - Holy Door 2027

We warmly invite you to join us on a faith-filled 14-day pilgrimage through Spain and Portugal, following in the footsteps of the saints and visiting some of the most treasured Marian shrines and sacred sites. This special journey celebrates the Holy Year 2027 in Santiago de Compostela, offering pilgrims the extraordinary opportunity to enter through the Holy Door of the Cathedral of Santiago and venerate the sacred relics of St. James the Apostle.

Along our spiritual journey, we will honor St. Ignatius of Loyola at his birthplace, visit the historic castle of St. Francis Xavier, and discover the Benedictine heritage of St. Dominic of Silos. We will also visit the revered Marian sanctuaries of Our Lady of Montserrat, Our Lady of the Pillar in Zaragoza, and Our Lady of Begoña in Bilbao. Our pilgrimage culminates at the beloved Shrine of Our Lady of Fátima, where we will reflect upon the apparitions of the Blessed Virgin Mary and the lives of Saints Francisco and Jacinta Marto, the young shepherd children of Fátima.

Through daily Mass, prayer, reflection, and Christian fellowship, this pilgrimage offers a beautiful opportunity for spiritual renewal, a deeper devotion to our Blessed Mother, and a closer connection to the remarkable saints who have shaped our Catholic faith. Join us for this unforgettable journey of faith, grace, and lasting memories.
