To celebrate your parish anniversary in real style, consider organizing a one-of-a-kind pilgrimage - a pilgrimage carefully matching your parish name and intimately related to your parish’s anniversary celebration.

At Catholic Travel Centre, we have helped many parishes to customize a deeply meaningful pilgrimage as a way to celebrate an important milestone in the parish history.

Some samples of Parish Anniversary Pilgrimages we have organized:

• Immaculate Conception Parishes to Lourdes, France, where Our Lady identified herself to Bernadette Soubirous as ‘the Immaculate Conception’.
  
• St. Therese of the Little Flower parishes to Lisieux, France, to
  visit the tomb of St. Therese.
  
• St. Francis of Assisi parishes to Assisi & Rome, Italy, to pay homage to this mendicant saint.
  
• St. Elizabeth Anne Seton, to Livorno, Italy to visit the sites
  critical to the conversion of St. Elizabeth.
  
• St. Patrick’s Parish, to Ireland, to visit the sites vital to St.
  Patrick.
  
• St. Dominic’s Parish, to Spain, France & Italy to visit the
  birthplace and place of repose of St. Dominic.
  
• St. Ignatius of Loyola Parish, to Spain, to visit Loyola, Manresa, and Montserrat, all important sites in the life of St. Ignatius.
  
• St. Teresa of Avila Parish, to Avila, Spain, to trace the life of this Doctor of the Church. Celebrate Mass in the Monastery of the Incarnation, where St. Teresa spent much of her life.
  

Itinerary planning:
Based on your needs, we can plan an itinerary with you that:

• highlights the spiritual nature of your trip, but also
  
• leaves plenty of time to visit the major tourist sites and
  
• has plenty of time to explore cities on your own.

Of course, you can have Mass scheduled daily for your group, and CTC can arrange the altars each day for Mass, exclusively for your group.

Arrangements we make for you:
Airline reservations, hotels, buses, guides, daily private Masses and much more are handled by the CTC Team – a group of seasoned travel professionals. For a full listing, click here to see What CTC Does for Group Leaders…
