Walking Pilgrimage to
Our Lady
of American Czestochowa Shrine
in Doylestown, PA
From Trenton (NJ) to Doylestown (Pa).
10 - 11 August 2019
The annual pilgrimage is modeled after Poland’s centuries-old tradition in honor of the Blessed Virgin Mary. Faithful from throughout the country would make a pilgrimage, walking hundreds of miles on foot and even some on their knees, to the Jasna Góra monastery in Częstochowa, which since 1384 has housed the icon of the Black Madonna, depicting the country’s patron saint, Our Lady of Częstochowa.
Numerous faithful in the Diocese uphold the tradition of joining in a “pielgrzymka,” or walking pilgrimage, including those from parishes with Polish populations including St. Hedwig and Sacred Heart, both Trenton, and St. Mary of the Lake, Lakewood. The pilgrimage to Doylestown occurs every year on the weekend preceding the Solemnity of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary.
