As Mike K mentioned at our February meeting:
Saturday, March 11 we’ll make our annual Pilgrimage to Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception.
Tentative plans:
Depart by carpool from St. Bridget at about 6:15-6:30 a.m. and try to return by about 6:00 p.m.
The day consists of (each person picks and chooses what to devote their time to)
a guided tour
private prayer
Confessions
Holy Mass
Stations of the Cross
the opportunity to stop by the bookstore/gift shop
In between the tour and Mass, some of the guys may make a quick side trip to the Dominican House of Studies to pray the Rosary in their chapel or to the Shrine of Saint Pope John Paul II.
After Stations of the Cross in the Crypt Church at the Shrine, we usually adjourn to The Dubliner or Irish Times near Union Station for a late lunch before returning to Richmond.
Please email Mike K at ckoz654@aol.com if you plan to go.
