This is a pilgrimage open to families. It would be wonderful if minors could be accompanied by an adult. It is a great family experience if possible!

Scholarships for individuals and family groups are readily available.
We will be sleeping on the floor at Sacred Heart Church in Bowie, Maryland. We can accommodate families with infants.
Protecting God’s Children (PGC) is required for anyone 18 and older. PGC classes and fingerprinting should try to be done before the end of 2025. Anyone who had fingerprinting done before February 2021, must have it redone. The sooner this is done, the better. More information and instructions can be found in the registration forms.
