Pilgrimage in the South Region

Christ Church, Charlotte sent its largest group of Pilgrims (37 youth and 6 adults) to Ireland. God’s grace abounded each and every day, pulling us closer and closer to each other and to Him.  Together we hiked to the top of Crough Patrick, a never-ending slippery slope of shale and hail.   Read more about this pilgrimage.

 Saint Patrick, Mooresville At the end of June, eight teenagers and three adults from St. Patrick's had the honor of making a pilgrimage to Arizona.  Our pilgrimage goals were to experience spirituality throughout the ages and to meet God in nature. The trip was inspiring.  We were awed by God’s creation, enriched by the many forms of worship we experienced, and challenged and encouraged by living in community for a week.  Pam Hatley  Read more.

 Saint Martin's, Charlotte took their youth on a pilgrimage to Belize this summer. The  group wanted to learn more about the Anglican Church in the country, explore the Mayan ruins and civilization, and explore more of God’s creation in another part of the world, particularly the jungle and ocean. Our journey was filled with moments of awe, inspiration, and humbleness as we encountered another culture and society unlike ours. Tim Meyers  Read More
