It’s 4,300 miles from Chicago, Illinois, USA to Lalouvesc, France. This communal, virtual pilgrimage is a free, engaging, and we hope a spiritually inspiring journey.
- Goal: Have some fun while learning about Cenacle Spirituality – and take a trip the only way we know how during a pandemic – and virtually walk, run, bike or dance from your own home to Lalouvesc, France, cradle of the Cenacle Congregation – with other memorable stops along the way.
- Why: To get us moving, to journey together; perhaps we’ll spark the Spirit inside of each of us as we partake in this virtual pilgrimage at our own pace. Guided by Sr. Susan Arcaro, r.c, we’ll visit La Mas, Lyon, Notre Dame D’Ay, Lalouvesc, and La Plagnal, France on this pilgrimage.
- When: May 16, 2021 until June 13, 2021.
- (The following is optional and for those interested. You do not have to walk or record miles to take part in this pilgrimage:**28 days to walk 4,300 miles / 153.50 miles per day. With 50 virtual pilgrims that’s just 3 miles per person per day!**)
- Where: Anywhere you can walk, run, bike, dance, or just move; treadmills, outside, peloton, stairs in your home, et cetera. The videos of the pilgrimage sites will be shared via email on a weekly basis, each Sunday, with a live debrief on June 13.
- How: Enter your miles daily or at the end of each day or week on the Google Form.)
