This year marks the 35th anniversary of the revival of the Pilgrimage. Thanks to Fr. John Tritschler, the pilgrimage was revived on August 15, 1987. Mass was celebrated at St. Joseph’s Parish in Mission and some 400 people walked towards the Grotto. The pilgrimage evolved and grew over the years to become the largest outdoor Archdiocesan event. Join us as we celebrate 35 years of giving powerful testimony to our love of Mary and her son, Jesus. "All to Jesus through Mary”
