Lenten Shrine Pilgrimage—March 5

Lenten Shrine Pilgrimage—March 5

Gents,

I have reserved Saturday, March 5 for our Shrine trip this year. Details are still being worked out, but the general itinerary will be the same one you are familiar with from years past ( tour, Confessions available, Mass, private prayer/bookstore, Stations of the Cross).

Since we are dealing with ever changing District of Columbia COVID-19 regulations, we will need to decide as we get closer to the trip about lunch at The Dubliner ( I’m fully aware that is probably the reason some of you go on the trip, so I’m hopeful).

We will plan to depart by carpool again if folks are comfortable with that approach. You are of course welcome to meet us up there, people have done that in the past as well. I’m also planning to invite the Men of St. Joseph from St. Edward’s, who have joined us in the past.

Departure will be at 6:30 a.m., from the front parking lot @ St. Bridget, hoping to arrive with time to spare before the 9:00 a.m. tour. The cafeteria is currently closed, so bring your own coffee. We try to get back in time for the Vigil Mass on Saturday, but we are usually cutting it pretty close. Of course, that will depend on whether we have lunch up in DC or not and traffic conditions.

If you want to go on the pilgrimage, please email me at ckoz654@aol.com and include your mobile phone contact info. Also, let me know if you want to be a driver and, if so, how many people you can fit comfortably in your vehicle.

Have a great weekend!

Mike K.
