Organize a Pilgrimage Priest-led Catholic Group

 

Are you a priest who wants to share a once-in-a lifetime spiritual experience with parishioners?   Walking the land that Jesus of Nazareth did, brings the Gospels and the life and ministry of Jesus Christ into focus and into your heart. Each day of your pilgrimage you will have time to renew and affirm your faith; to pray and celebrate Holy Mass in some of the most faith-filled churches and shrines in the Holy Land.

Scripture will come alive as you visit the homeland of Jesus. It is an encounter that has changed the lives of many pilgrims over the centuries. As part of your pilgrimage, Kenes Christian Tours includes many of the rich traditions that have evolved in the Holy Land.

If you are a priest, religious or lay leader, you can travel for free by organizing a group. Talk to us about your benefits of leading a tour.
