Join us this Season of Creation, John!
Join thousands of Catholics in an unprecedented effort to lift a unified voice around Laudato Si’ and the importance of care for creation in the United States and the Catholic Church. 120+ Catholic communities across the United States are organizing local pilgrimages as sacred opportunities to pray for the grace to encounter Christ in Creation and renew our relationships with God, the Earth, and one another.
We invite you to walk with us by hosting and/or joining a Pilgrimage of Hope for Creation during the Season of Creation—September 1-October 4.
Peace,
Brenna Davis
Director of Integral Ecology

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Do I have to organize this with my parish?
No! While many parishes are organizing pilgrimages, you can also organize one with your school, religious community, or even your family and friends!
?Are there any specific requirements for hosting a pilgrimage
At least part of the pilgrimage should be done outside, and it should incorporate the pilgrimage prayer or song. That's it! We've got tons of tips for a successful pilgrimage on our how-to page.
