Lourdes Youth Pilgrimage 2027

The Youth Pilgrimage is 50 years old. It was created to offer assistance to our pilgrims in Lourdes who might need some extra help moving around the town. Over the years it has grown and developed. We now take 7 coaches of young people, like yourself, from all different parts of the archdiocese - so there will be a coach group local to you. We still help our assisted pilgrims, but the week is so much more than that.

 

Each coach will do different activities as a group during the day. You will have your own coach day off in the week. And we will meet other coach groups in the evening in some of the local cafes. Your coach becomes like a little family - a mini community - as you spend time with each other and get to know each other through the week.

 

Lourdes is a reminder that faith can be an empowering gift in our lives - encouraging us to act for the good of others and giving us a sense of joy that nothing else can compare with.
