Living Stones Itineraries

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. Please contact Catholic Travel Centre if you would like to incorporate Living Stones elements into your itinerary. To view a sample ‘Living Stones Itinerary’ click here.
