A Living Stones Pilgrimage
combines to traditional Holy Land pilgrimage
sites (the
so-called Ancient Stones) with opportunities
to touch the pulsing Christian community, whom
we
call the ‘Living Stones’, as well
with members of the Jewish and Muslim communities.
The ‘Living
Stones Christian community has kept the faith
alive in the land where Our Savior was born.
Visits by pilgrim groups encourage and invigorate
this Christian community, offering support to carry-on in face of much adversity.
Recent exhortations by the Holy Father are encouraging Catholics to travel
to the Holy Land to support their brothers and sisters in Faith.
Catholic Travel
Centre has offered these highly specialized pilgrimages
for various groups,
including tours co-hosted by Catholic Relief
Services.
