NEW!
ASSISI PROJECT
HOLY LAND PILGRIMAGE 2011
Come & See Meeting: Saturday, June 18th at 6:30pm

Pilgrimage has always been a basic component of the Franciscan spiritual tradition. During his lifetime, Saint Francis journeyed throughout the known world to preach the gospel. Many believe that Francis even visited the Holy Land. This year, the Assisi Project has decided to prepare for a pilgrimage to the Holy Land from October 26, 2011 through November 3, 2011.

During this nine day pilgrimage, we will celebrate Mass each day and visit the following cities and sites: Bethelehem, Cana, Capernaum, Jaffa, Jerusalem, Nazareth, the Mount of Olives, the Mount of the Beatitudes, Mount Zion, the Sea of Galilee, the Church of the Nativity, the Church of the Holy Sepulcher, and the Wailing Wall.

You don't need to be a member of the Assisi Project to join us for this pilgrimage! The per person costs for this pilgrimage include round-trip air travel; all ground transportation; hotel accommodations; and 15 meals over nine days:

Double: $2,799
Single: $3,299
Triple: $2,769

If you are interested in learning more about the Assisi Project's Holy Land Pilgrimage, please join us for a special "Come & See Meeting" on Saturday, June 18th at 6:30pm in the Parish Center. We will be joined by a representative of Collette Vacations and by a fellow parishioner who recently traveled to the Holy Land. Refreshments will be served. Please join us! All are welcome!
