Dear Pilgrims,

I want to personally invite you to join us for an unforgettable tour of Poland and Eastern Europe. Together we will explore the beautiful cities of Prague, Vienna, Budapest, Krakow, Warsaw and more! Our pilgrimage promises to expand and deepen our faith as we learn more about our Catholic heritage, gain a biblical & historical perspective and enjoy the beauty, landscape, cuisine, hospitality and traditions of the region! We guarantee you will experience the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit in a dynamic and intimate way that will enrich, impact, and inspire your spiritual journey.
