The Shrine of Our Lady of Guadalupe in La Crosse, Wis., is a spiritual destination with many beautiful chapels, statues, gardens, and devotional areas for visitors and pilgrims from all over the world. Enjoy gardens and Sacred Art nestled throughout the Shrine grounds.
Join our parish on our pilgrimage to the shrine on Dec. 10, 2022, to celebrate the Feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe (on Dec. 12) and to participate in a "Rorate Caeli" Pontifical High Mass with His Eminence, Raymond Leo Cardinal Burke, founder of the Shrine of Our Lady of Guadalupe.
There will be a Rosary, Mass, catered lunch, time for devotions, and taking in the breathtaking scenery and artwork, as well as a visit to the bookstore and gift shop. We will take a chartered bus there and back, and will have an opportunity on the bus to pray and reflect on the importance of Our Lady of Guadalupe and her message to us. Registration includes:
