Santiago de Compostela
"Certainly this experience changes one, and I am still processing much of my time along the Camino. The time alone walking through the hamlets, towns, and paths allowed me time to pray and converse with our Lord. I believe several of the struggles I was having, I was able to pray through, and have left on the Camino."
Donna S. Pilgrim from Charlotte, NC
France
"The pilgrimage was fantastic, there is no way to experience so much without taking the trip through a tour service. I was absolutely amazed at how much we were able to see and do. The day we arrived we were quickly on our way to all the scheduled stops for day 2. Very impressed from the very start."
Emma P. Pilgrim from Leeds, AL
Marian Shrines
"The Marian focus structured our prayer, both personal and communal, and our reflection, giving room for Saint James and Saint Ignatius. The smaller group was ideal actually. By the second day we bonded and everyone knew everyone else's name.   View More "
Fr. John R. Pilgrim from Indianapolis, IN
Poland/Central Europe
"My favorite moment was seeing the image of Our Lady of Czestochowa for the first time! Hearing the trumpets “put her to bed” and “wake her up again” gave me goosebumps! My Mom is pure Polish, so I grew up hearing about The Black Madonna."
Maryann S. Pilgrim from Lincoln, NE
Italy
"The planned itinerary and the professionalism of the Tekton staff made it obvious that the company was highly experienced with great attention to detail."
Lou D. Pilgrim from Papillion, NE
Ireland
"I feel more comfortable about talking about the Irish saints and have a deeper understanding of the trials Catholics endure, which means I will sympathize with more countries who suffer persecution and are oppressed for their belief in God. Hopefully I will pray more for the oppressed!"
Karen C. Pilgrim from Troy, TN
Medjugorje
