The National Eucharistic Pilgrimage, “One Nation Under God,” will arrive at the Archdiocese of Boston June 26-28, 2026, just days before our country celebrates the 250th birthday of our country. The pilgrimage calls us to build unity through prayer, and to let Jesus, present in the Eucharist, renew and heal the heart of our country one soul at a time. The pilgrimage will travel the eastern seaboard of the United States beginning in St. Augustine, Florida and concluding in Philadelphia, PA. From Memorial Day 2026 through July 5, the Pilgrimage will include daily Mass, walking processions, Eucharistic adoration, witness talks, and service projects. The pilgrimage will pass through most of the thirteen original colonies with stops in eighteen dioceses. Pilgrims will carry the Blessed Sacrament along the route, engaging Catholics in each community. The locations for the pilgrimage in our own diocese during the June 26-28 visit will have historical significance in the founding of our country. A procession will take place from a centralized gathering place in Boston to Charlestown. A vigil Mass is being planned on Saturday, June 27 at the Cathedral of the Holy Cross. Visit eucharisticpilgrimage.org for more information and a precise schedule of events.
Join us for this fun, family annual tradition! We will celebrate Mass outside in the Mary grotto and follow our time together with ice cream sundaes. Mass begins at 6.
