2026 Pilgrimage Schedule

Learn more about when and how we make pilgrimage to Lourdes!

Bernadette said she felt a mysterious pull to go to the Grotto.  If you are feeling an “inexplicable pull” to go to Lourdes, surely Our Lady has placed this most beautiful desire in your heart.  By making pilgrimage with Our Lady of Lourdes North American Volunteers, you are opening yourself up to grow in holiness and be transformed by the loving example of St. Bernadette in simplicity, humility and obedience.

Supportive Care Needs Pilgrimages – April, June, & October

We bring the sick to Lourdes,  accompanied by teams of medical and adult volunteers.
They make pilgrimage as one family, lovingly attending to one another’s needs.

Volunteer Service Pilgrimages – April, June & October

Our Advance Team Volunteers provide service and support to our Supportive Care Needs Pilgrimage by arriving before and departing after our pilgrims in order to lovingly attend to their needs. Volunteers must be fit for duty.
