It starts around the world.

The Walk to Mary Pilgrimage calls people from all 4 corners of the globe. This international celebration of Mary has become an essential and unique experience as it takes pilgrims on a one-of-a-kind journey from the National Shrine of St. Joseph to the the only Vatican-approved  Marian apparition site in the United States.

The spiritual journey starts at home in preparation for the day of the pilgrimage. We look forward to assisting you in any way possible, to make this a lifetime memory.

Accommodations

We have a limited number of Green Bay WI area Host Families who have volunteered to share their home for a night or two with Walk to Mary Pilgrims. The Walk to Mary carefully selects Host Families based on their desire to host visiting pilgrims and their ability to provide a safe, comfortable home and faith filled experience for you. Our current list of Host Families includes Walk to Mary sponsors, volunteers and members of our Medical Team.
