Benedictine College and the National Eucharistic Revival
Benedictine College is pleased to be a sponsor of the National Eucharistic Congress, coming next July to Indianapolis, and we are excited to host a major stop along the National Eucharistic Pilgrimage headed to the event.
Pilgrimage Stop in Atchison, Kansas
Pilgrims walking along the western St. Junipero Serra Route, named for the missionary priest who walked thousands of miles ministering to the Spanish settlers and indigenous people in 1700s California, will reach Atchison on June 25, 2024. The group will spend the night in Adoration at Benedictine College and will celebrate Mass on the morning of June 26 before continuing their procession east.
