Do you sometimes feel stressed, harassed and burdened by your daily cares and problems? Do you feel weighed down by failed friendships and relationships, addictions and obsessions that seem too hard to handle? Living in the big city in a seemingly uncaring, materialistic world is pretty hard for a Catholic Christian. It is very easy to give in to temptations, follow what other people are doing ev
en if they’re in the wrong path and lose our way in the process. But is this really what we’re here on earth for, to follow our every whim, fancy and selfish desires and ambitions? We invite you to take some time to refresh, re-energize and find your way back to God in a personal encounter. Join our Catholic pilgrimage tour to re-discover yourselves, your family and your friends in God’s eyes! The Encounter with God Catholic pilgrimage tour is a group dedicated to helping individuals, families and friends find inspiration and meaning in life by reflecting on our relationships with our families and our relation with our God through prayers, sharing/testimonies and active participation in the Sacraments, the treasury of graces given by our Lord to His children on earth. We do this while we visit national shrines of Mother Mary, our Lord Jesus and the saints to find our focus, our mission in life, which is to love, praise and adore our God above all else and bring God back in the hearts, minds and souls of our brothers and sisters. For the month of April, we start our pilgrimage right where you are, the National Shrines of our Blessed Mother Mary in Metro Manila.
