Your participation helped make this pilgrimage a day of profound prayer, community, and devotion.

In his message, Fr. Joseph-Anthony recalls the blessings of the day: over 4,000 pilgrims gathering to pray the Rosary, more than 800 confessions heard, and the inspiring music from the Hillbilly Thomists concert. He also gives thanks to the 26,000 pilgrims who joined via livestream, extending the spirit of the pilgrimage far beyond Washington, D.C.
