“Pilgrims of Hope”: The Theology and Practice of Pilgrimage with presenter: Chris Conway, Ph.D.

Walk with Chris and discover the transformative power a pilgrimage can give.

Pope Francis declared the theme for the 2025 Jubilee to be “Pilgrims of Hope.” Pilgrimage as both a practice and a metaphor has a rich tradition in Christianity the Church is called to be a pilgrim church, and we are to be a pilgrim people. In exploring what makes pilgrimage such an evocative symbol, we will look at pilgrimage as it is presented in the Bible, practiced in the tradition, and has appeared in the arts. As a religious phenomenon that is not limited to Christianity, we will also look at the place and places of pilgrimage in other faith traditions to further understand the power and pervasiveness of this practice. Whether it is a setting out or turning in, the theology, practice, and symbol of pilgrimage continues to inspire persons of faith around the world.
