Pilgrimages

The whole of our lives is one great pilgrimage as we journey through progressing ever closer to the joyful moment when we will come face to face with our Creator. Making an intentional pilgrimage propels us forward in our spiritual journey. We create a space to draw closer to God. In joining together as pilgrims, we also move closer to one another, reflecting the oneness and unity that God desires of his people.

A pilgrimage

The Catholic Grandparents Association grew out of individual Grandparent Pilgrimages in England and Ireland. For these reasons, participating in an annual Grandparents’ Pilgrimage seems like an integral part of being a part of the CGA. An annual event like this also offers a chance for many branches to celebrate St. Anne and St. Joachim and grandparenting together. Grandparents should not keep such a wonderful day to themselves. It is a joy to share it with the entire family in a day of Faith and fun.

Pilgrimages are now held in the UK, Ireland, Scotland, Malta, Canada, USA, and are planned for Australia, Mexico, and the Phillipines.

The Catholic Grandparents Association is a global organization of the faithful. An integral part of the Catholic Grandparents Association is setting up branches at the parish level. These act as prayer and support groups for Grandparents. Grandparents have a unique vocation that must be fostered and cherished in the spirit of St. Joachim and St. Anne, the Grandparents of Jesus and parents of Mary. If you are unable to locate a Ministry in your area and are interested in starting a new Ministry, please email us at info@catholicgrandparentsassociation.com or phone us at 085 8704722 Ireland, 01328 560 333 UK or 888-510-5006 in the US.
