Fr. Joseph-Anthony Kress, O.P., invites you to save the date for the 2026 Dominican Rosary Pilgrimage, taking place on Saturday, September 26, 2026, at the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception in Washington, DC.

Each year, pilgrims from across the country gather to pray the Rosary, celebrate the Eucharist, and entrust their intentions to Our Lady—asking to be led more deeply to Christ through her intercession.

This pilgrimage begins not only in September, but in prayer. Preparation for the 2026 pilgrimage includes a nine-month novena, beginning January 31 and prayed on the last Saturday of each month until the pilgrimage.
