Parish Pilgrimages

June 9 -  21, 2019
Rome - Assisi - San Giovanni Rotondo - Monte Cassino - Sorrento - Isle of Capri - Naples - Amalfi Coast - Positano

Please see the brochure below for all the details. Some of the highlights:

• We begin with several days in Rome and will visit St. Peter's, join the audience with the Holy Father on June 12, and see all of the main churches and holy sites in Roma, including the Vatican Museum, the Sistine Chapel, the Coliseum, the Forum, and so much more. You can't visit Italy without going to the Eternal City!
• We'll take a day trip just north of Rome to Assisi to visit the home of St. Francis of Assisi. Assisi is a special place and it promises to be a day of many spiritual blessings.
• After a free day back in Rome to catch up on anything that we might have missed, we'll head south to San Giovanni Rotondo, the home of Padre Pio.
• From there we make our way to Monte Cassino, Pompeii, and Sorrento.  
• We get off the bus and onto the boat for a sail over to the Isle of Capri. That will be amazing. And then we make our way to Naples for a few days and throw in a trip down the Amalfi Coast and another sail to Positano before departing Naples back to Houston.

First-come, first-served, so don't delay. Spread the word, get your passport ready, and come join us! If you have any questions, let Roxie Goetz know (roxie.goetz@ctrcc.com). We have hard copies of the attached brochure available in the Parish Office.
 

Looking ahead, we'll be going to the Passion Play in Oberammergau, Germany on June 5-16, 2020. We'll share those details with you in early spring and begin taking reservations at Easter, but mark the dates on your calendar now as we are locked in with Passion Play tickets and hotel reservations already secured.

Almost every year members of the parish are invited to go on a pilgrimage to visit a few countries around the world. This week-trip takes a large group, usually around 50-80 people, to visit places relating to our Catholic faith and Christian heritage. The pastor leads the group along with a professional tour guide who will guide travelers through the areas to make the most of the trip. Previous pilgrimages include Ireland, the Holy Land and Eastern Europe. The trip prices are to be paid fully by participants and the trips are all inclusive (airfare, hotels, two meals each day, daily sightseeing, etc.).
