Pilgrimage with Port Arthur stops

Rediscover holy sites on this 13th annual pilgrimage in Port Arthur. It will include the Traditional Latin Mass, the Most Holy Rosary, the Way of the Cross, spiritual talks and Catholic history.

Liza Gossett, Pilgrimage co-chair said, “Pilgrimages evoke our earthly journey toward heaven and are traditionally very special occasions for renewal in prayer,’ cited by Catechism of the Catholic Church.

Mass kicks off at 9 a.m. at Our Lady of Guadalupe Church, 3648 S/Sgt. Lucian Adams Blvd. at Ninth Avenue, with time for confessions starting at 8:15 a.m.  Pilgrims start the journey after Mass to visit Port Arthur’s two Shrines of the Blessed Virgin Mary, stopping at holy sites along the 5-mile path to arrive about 3:30 p.m. at the Queen of Peace Shrine, 800 Ninth Ave. A Bishop David Toups blessing and group photo follows.
