2012 Pilgrimages

A Special Invitation to actually stay inside Vatican City

Did you ever dream of a peaceful, unhurried visit to Rome and the Vatican, as a spiritual pilgrimage? The dream can come true. We offer a spiritual pilgrimage to the heart of the Church, with time for solitude and prayer in extraordinary places with ready access to St. Peter’s Basilica and private visits to Vatican museums and the Sistine Chapel. Retreat to Vatican City and actually stay inside the Vatican walls across the piazza from St. Peter’s Basilica in the Domus Sanctae Marthae, where the Cardinals stay during the conclave. Your meals will be served in the only dining room inside Vatican City other than the Papal palace. The small group size of our pilgrimages allow for personal experiences and intimate meetings. The cost of our pilgrimages includes airfare, all meals, all lodging, and a contribution supporting our work and the Domus Sanctae Marthae. Total price is under $5,000 excluding the Easter and Russian pilgrimages.

Due to the special nature of our relationships, and private access to sacred areas, we request all pilgrims provide a brief note of recommendation from their bishop or local parish priest. Number of pilgrims is limited to keep it peaceful.
