It was the pilgrimage I was waiting for more than 20 years. Everything from food, accommodations, spiritual direction and harmony was all I had envisioned and even more. Thank you Mike and Katie for such awesome experience and for giving all your best to make it unforgettable. For this I am grateful! God bless you both. Etna B.
What an amazing pilgrimage! The people, the worship, the food...EVERYTHING was lovely! The joy and peace that permeates Medjugorje is unmistakable, and the way that the guides provide meaningful experiences each day made the trip so memorable and powerful.
The October 2024 pilgrimage trip to Medjugorje exceeded all our expectations and more. I would encourage everyone to make the trip once and I guarantee you will want to return again. I learned about Medjugorje 31 years ago and I wish I wouldn’t have waited so long to make the trip. It is such a beautiful, peaceful and holy place. Truly heaven on earth!
Our wonderful and amazing leaders were Mike Nolan and Katie Reis. They added a component of the trip that was priceless. Mike was so incredibly knowledgeable regarding biblical history, scripture, and backed up phenomenally by Katie.
On top of everything else, one of our favorite times of the day were the early morning sessions that started with coffee, the rosary and singing praises. Mike’s guitar and voice, along with Katie’s made it pretty special to say the least.
We had two very special priests with us on pilgrimage, Fr. Cassian and Fr. Binu. They led us in a number of exciting and powerful religious activities and provided us with love, affection, compassion, and true kindness. So giving of themselves!
Our guide, Ana was phenomenal and so knowledgeable about Medjugorje. She added another level of context to the meaning of being in Medjugorje.
Our pilgrim group was just a great collection of people. There was a lot of diversity in age differences but everyone got along splendidly, and we will cherish those friendships forever!
Last but not least, thank you to Mike’s wife Annie, his daughter Mara and all those who helped organize the pilgrimage. Also for the ongoing prayers before and throughout our pilgrimage!
Thank you, thank you,
