A Spiritual Journey Through the Heart of Africa

Date: 28th Jun 2026 - 11th Jul 2026

Encounter God through creation, culture, and community on this remarkable African pilgrimage that blends daily prayer with awe-inspiring natural wonders. Beginning in Zambia, the journey opens with visits to local cathedrals and moments of grounding reflection before moving to Livingstone, home to the mighty Victoria Falls. Standing before one of the world’s greatest waterfalls, pilgrims are invited to contemplate the power and beauty of God’s creation.  

Crossing borders into Zimbabwe and Botswana, the pilgrimage unfolds through wildlife-rich landscapes, including a guided safari at Chobe National Park, where reflection on stewardship and reverence for life takes on deeper meaning. The journey continues into Kenya, where faith and nature meet across the plains of Ol Pejeta, the tranquil waters of Lake Naivasha, and the legendary Maasai Mara. With daily Mass, cultural encounters, and time for quiet prayer woven throughout, this pilgrimage invites renewal of faith through the rhythms of Africa’s land and people.
