Itinerary
Day 1: Arrive Santa Fe
Upon arrival, meet driver for your transfer to the hotel for check in. Enjoy some free time, this evening meet your group in the lobby of your hotel for a movie, Mass and dinner.
Day 2: Loretto Chapel - Abiquiu (Benedictine Monastery)
Following breakfast at the hotel, our first stop will be at the Loretto Chapel with the Miraculous Staircase of St. Joseph. The Chapel is a former Roman Catholic Church that is now used as a museum. The Sisters of Loretto credited St. Joseph with its construction. It has been the subject of legend, and the circumstances surrounding its construction and its builder were considered miraculous by the Sisters of Loretto. The Miraculous Staircase was built by a mysterious carpenter that no one has ever seen, but Sisters of Loreto claimed that it was St. Joseph. It is said that the entire construction of it is simply "impossible." It was built without any nails or glue, it lacks any central support and according to many, it should have collapsed the very first moment someone used it. We will continue to Abiquiu, a small town located in northern New Mexico. Abiquiu means "wild choke cherry place" in the Tewa language. The community is also called Santo Tomas de Abiquiu and the Pueblo of Santo Tomas de Abiquiu. While here we will visit the Benedictine Monastery of Christ in the Desert. From its beginnings, the monastery has followed the Benedictine life according to the Rule of St. Benedict with no external apostolates. Return to Santa Fe, for dinner at a local restaurant for dinner. Hotel for overnight.
Day 3: Santa Fe (Santuario de Guadalupe, San Miguel Mission and the Cathedral Basilica of St Francis of Assisi)
We will have breakfast at the hotel and proceed to our visit of Cristo Rey Church. Next, we continue to Cathedral Basilica of St. Francis of Assisi for Mass. The Cathedral of Saint Francis of Assisi was officially elevated to a Basilica by Pope Benedict XVI on October 4, 2005. Following Mass, we will enjoy lunch on our own. Then, we will visit and explore San Miguel Mission. San Miguel Mission was established on July 25, 1797, by the Franciscan order. "The Oldest Church" in the continental United States is a site chosen specifically due to the large number of Salinan Indians who inhabited the area, whom the Spanish priests wanted to evangelize. Our group will walk to Nuestra Senora de Guadalupe which is one of the most historic Catholic Shrines in Santa Fe. Upon our return to the hotel, we will stop at the cross of martyrs. Enjoy dinner at a local restaurant and overnight at the hotel.
Day 4: Santa Fe - Return Home
Enjoy your last breakfast at the hotel. Say "farewell" to your fellow pilgrims with new memories. Check out of the hotel and continue to Santa Fe airport for your return flight(s) home.
