We will start our pilgrimage with seven unforgettable days in the Holy Land. It’s not possible in one brief invitation to mention all the amazing places we will visit, but we will spend time at the Sea of Galilee, the Mount of Beatitudes, and Capernaum. Married couples will have the opportunity to renew their wedding vows at Cana, the site of Jesus’ first miracle. Our time in the Holy Hand will conclude in the holy city of Jerusalem where we will visit Bethlehem, the Basilica of Agony, and the Basilica of the Holy Sepulcher, and walk the Via Dolorosa. After having visited the Holy Land you will never read the Scriptures or attend Mass in the same way.

From the Holy Land we will depart for Rome to join our Catholic brothers and sisters from all over the world. The Charismatic Renewal has been a blessing to the Church for 50 years; the Holy Father wants Catholics to join him in celebration and thanksgiving. While in Rome, we will have the opportunity to visit the major Basilicas of Rome as well as many of the historical sites. There will also be lectures, preaching, times of anointed praise, and plenty of time for fellowship and gelato. Our time in Rome will culminate in a celebration with the Holy Father at St. Peter’s on the Solemnity of Pentecost. What an amazing and holy celebration this will be. And you have been invited by the Holy Father himself! How can we say no to that?

But the pilgrimage does not end in Rome. An optional extension is available. We will depart from Rome for the Shrine of Padre Pio in San Giovanni Rotondo. St. Pio is one of the most beloved saints to have ever lived and his shrine is one of the most visited in the world. While there we will visit the friary where Padre Pio lived, his tomb, and celebrate Mass in the very chapel where Padre Pio prayed. It is a truly inspiring and holy place.
