Join us in a 9 day cycling pilgrimage from Raleigh, North Carolina to the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception in Washington, D.C.! Seven of the days will be spent in the Diocese of Raleigh and the last two in Washington, D.C. Our mission is to encourage the faithful to endeavor to live out their vocational call in the light of the "Gospel of Life" and to do acts of love in their marriages, families, parishes, communities, and in all life situations. We are responding to the request of the late Pope John Paul II to '"Place your intelligence, your talent, your enthusiasm, your compassion, and your fortitude at the service of life! Have no fear." Pilgrims are Families, Young Adults and three Franciscan Friars of the Renewal including Fr. Fidelis CFR will participate in this pilgrimage riding in their habits! See Paul Tomas' photos of the 2007 Pilgrimage here!
