Why a Latin Mass pilgrimage

What a Latin Mass pilgrimage is

The Traditional Latin Mass, every day

Your group’s daily Mass is the traditional Latin Mass. The time and the church are arranged with each parish or shrine before you travel, the same way we arrange daily Mass for every group we take.

Your own priest, or ours

Most groups travel with their own priest, and the itinerary is built around where he is able to celebrate. If your group does not have a priest of its own, say so when you inquire and we will tell you plainly what we can arrange for your dates rather than promise it in advance.

A pilgrimage first

Every destination keeps daily Mass and the shrines of the country it visits, so the trip is a pilgrimage rather than a tour with churches in it. Confession, the Rosary and time to pray at each shrine are part of the day, not extras around it.

Somewhere else in mind?

These five are where Latin Mass groups most often ask to go, not the only places we travel. A group with its own priest and somewhere else in mind is exactly what the inquiry form below is for.

Dates

Your group travels on its own dates.

Tell us the window you have in mind and we will build the itinerary around it: the time you have, and the places that matter most to your pilgrims.

Before you ask

Frequently Asked Questions

Will the Mass be the Traditional Latin Mass every day?

That is what we arrange. Daily Mass is built into the itinerary and we confirm the time and the church in advance with each parish or shrine. Where a church cannot offer it on your date we say so and look for one that can, rather than leave it to chance on the day. Your priest should travel with a celebret or letter of good standing from his bishop or superior.

Do we need to bring our own priest?

Most groups do, and it is the surest way to have the Mass you want, in the form you want it, every day. If your group does not have a priest of its own, tell us when you inquire and we will say plainly what we can arrange for your dates.

How many pilgrims do we need?

Tell us roughly how many travellers you expect. Pricing follows the size of the party, and a group that brings its own priest usually travels on its own dates rather than joining a scheduled departure.

Can we join a scheduled Latin Mass pilgrimage instead?

Yes, when one is open. Whatever is currently taking bookings appears on this page. If nothing is listed, nothing is open at the moment and a custom group is the way to travel.

Can you build one somewhere not listed?

Yes, that is most of what we do. Tell us your dates, roughly how many travellers, and the shrines that matter most to your group.
