Welcome to the Saginaw Pilgrim! The purpose of this blog for the next few months will be to help the 70 people from the Diocese of Saginaw, Michigan as they depart on a pilgrimage to Sydney, Australia for World Youth Day. Anyone not going on the pilgrimage will be able to follow the group day by day. You will read posts from some of the pilgrims, listen to their experiences and give your feedback and support to them.
If you are not traveling with us we ask you to be on the spiritual pilgrimage with us. We ask that you prayer not only for our safe traveling, but also ask the Holy Spirit to be upon us. All of us going want to experience God through Pope Benedict, the Eucharist, and the other pilgrims from around the world.
I will be including more pre-trip posts with pictures of the areas we will be and ask some of our pilgrims to contribute some of their personal journeys which are leading them to the other side of globe. So stay tuned.

This is nice!
The Midland Area Catholic Churches have 19 people traveling to Australia. We have been working very hard to raise the funds for this trip! Through bake sales, raffles, and working the concession stands at the Loon games we have seen how supportive people are toward us going. This has been a wonderful experience already so far and we haven't even left yet! It is truly amazing how generous people are to our youth! Thanks to everyone who have shown us financial and spiritual support!!
Daisy said, what a wonderful opportunity that most of us are unable to attend.please keep us updated with details. We want to live through you as you grow spiritually. Let us all know how everyone is doing. Have you recovered from the flight? We pray for you during your journey.
