Young Adult Pilgrim Information for the 2025 Pilgrimage of Hope

From June 22 - 29, 2025, the Diocese of New Ulm will invite all the faithful to partake in our diocesan pilgrimage, Pilgrimage of Hope. Beginning and ending at the Cathedral, we will walk from AFC to AFC with Mary to Jesus in the Eucharist as we intercede for the Church in America, the Diocese of New Ulm, and for hope and healing for every individual and family. Over the span of those 8 days, perpetual pilgrims will walk nearly 100 miles and the faithful are invited to join them along the way as they can.
