During this pandemic, Modern Catholic Pilgrim continues to work to provide a structured opportunity for prayer that allows for an experience of community as well. We at MCP believe that pilgrimage provides a way forward through the struggles of this time. Who better than the saints to guide us through it?

Would you be willing to pledge yourself to becoming a pilgrim and to follow one of the saints by making walked pilgrimage? If so, sign up to take part in a countrywide commitment to the development of the communion of saints throughout the month of October and culminating with the celebration of All Saints' Day on November 1st.

If you don't know where to start in determining which saint you'll be walking with, check out Catholic Online at catholic.org/saints/ or take a look at the list below to see saints with whom other pilgrims have pledged to walk. If you'd like to make more than one pilgrimage for various saints, just be sure to sign up every time so that we can give each saint the recognition he or she deserves.

Use our Pilgrimage Guide to help direct you in making a proper pilgrimage. It would have been difficult to make separate ones for the 10,000+ canonized saints, not to mention those beatified or declared venerable or servants of God, so you'll have to forgive the generalities in the guide. We're excited to include the supplement for families to provide a little more guidance to those with children who would like to take part.

​

We take heart in the words of Scripture, which demonstrate the existence of the communion of saints: "After this I had a vision of a great multitude, which no one could count, from every nation, race, people, and tongue. They stood before the throne and before the Lamb, wearing white robes and holding palm branches in their hands" (Revelation 7:9). How special to be able to join that multitude in pilgrimage.
