Join God of Family Christian Community on a pilgrimage through Portugal and Spain! Beginning in Porto, we will journey together as a community of faith, exploring the city before walking the final miles of the Camino Portuguese into Santiago de Compostela. There, we will pray at the tomb of St. James and attend Pilgrim Mass at the Cathedral, experiencing the spiritual joy of arriving at one of Christianity’s most sacred destinations.
Our pilgrimage continues to Fátima, where we will encounter the peace of Marian devotion at the Shrine of Our Lady of Fátima, including the Chapel of the Apparitions and the candlelight rosary procession. We will also visit sacred and historic sites such as Batalha, Alcobaça, Nazaré, and Santarém, home of the Eucharistic Miracle. This journey is an invitation to prayer, reflection, and renewal as we grow closer to Christ through sacred places and shared faith.
