Wisconsin Way Pilgrim Tours

This chapel is beautiful. Here’s a great opportunity to visit in this Franciscan jubilee year, a local treasure, the mothership of the Franciscan Sisters of Christian Charity. The architecture, chapel and art are treats for those of us who love old fashioned beauty.

Our pilgrims love the guided tours usually led by the gracious, witty and knowledgeable Sister Caritas, the order’s archivist. On our new Franciscan route, you walk the entire Devils River State Trail then cut east to Lake Michigan. The Mariner Trail takes you south by a lighthouse into Manitowoc; catch the Ice Age Trail segment on your way to Holy Family Convent.

Prayerfully preparing for a future pilgrimage (TBA) and appreciating divinely inspired beauty along the way at the Cathedral in Green Bay. Quiet, peaceful and transcendent.

Our first group pilgrimage outside the State of Wisconsin, with veteran WI Way pilgrims Corrine, her son and his 2 friends, along with Connie and her friend Mary to celebrate the beatification of now Blessed Fulton J. Sheen and to appreciate the incredible beauty of this wonderful Catholic city. Prayers for all pilgrims who have made the long journey offering prayers along the way. Please offer your requests for prayer intentions in the comments and keep ours in yours.

Buen Camino friends and God love you!

Happy Monday pilgrims. Diane and Brian are back on the trail today and heading south to Stangelville. Glad to reunite and help shuttle them again, as they explore new paths and Ice Age Trail sections along the way.

A bit humid but otherwise a fine afternoon for a quiet walk through the stations, penance, prayer and contemplative reflection. No crowds today and it’s simply glorious!

In addition to being veteran owned, I am grateful and pleased to announce our continuing verified membership with the Catholic Owned®️network.

Registration remains available for the upcoming Franciscan Fall pilgrimage scheduled for Sept. 6 to 18 of 2026 (see website for details).
