Call from the Crucified Heart: Relics of the Passion

This year, pilgrimage of the Relics of the Passion is entitled the Call from the Crucified Heart. It is designed to highlight a facet of what we believe Christ’s message is to us from various scenes during His Passion. We have also made exposition of the Holy Eucharist a required part of the meditative portion of our presentation, to underscore that time-transcending gift that connects us from His Passion to His Presence with us today. As a tribute to Our Lady of Sorrows, and in honor of the 100th anniversary of Our Lady’s apparitions at Fatima, our 2017 program also highlights a perspective on Mary as she accompanied Jesus on the path to Calvary.
