Embark on a week-long transformative pilgrimage retreat to El Paso, Texas, and Juárez, Mexico, where you'll immerse yourself in the pressing realities at the US/Mexican border. Engage firsthand with immigrants seeking refuge in the US, sharing meals and listening to their stories, while gaining insights from Church workers, Border Patrol, and others. Guided by principles of social justice and spirituality, this unique trip encourages participants to reflect on their beliefs through prayer and the Gospel. We will stay at a retreat center with daily opportunities for prayer, liturgy and faith sharing. Explore the intricacies of migration, better understand the impact of U.S. immigration policies, and discern meaningful responses to these urgent issues. Join us on this meaningful journey of learning, compassion, and advocacy at the border. Contact Zahira Sandoval if you are interested in knowing more.
