Pilgrimages to the Shrine of the Blessed Sacrament and EWTN

In only one trip, you can visit EWTN, the largest religious media Network in the world, and the divinely inspired Shrine of the Most Blessed Sacrament, home of Our Lady of the Angels Monastery, both founded by Mother M. Angelica. Located only one hour apart, both places offer pilgrims an experience as unique and unforgettable as our dear Foundress!
