A deeper look into the profound mysteries of Holy Thursday, Good Friday, and the Easter Vigil—and how these sacred days invite us into the heart of Christ’s saving love.

Mystical Visions: A Pilgrimage of Faith, Wonder, and Grace in Croatia & Medjugorje

June 21–July 1, 2026 ‒ A transformative journey benefitting the Bridgettine Sisters, Columbus, Ohio

Have you ever felt the pull of something deeper — a longing for spiritual renewal, profound peace, and an encounter with God that transforms both heart and life? This June, we invite you to join a truly once-in-a-lifetime pilgrimage that blends prayer, reflection, and sacred Catholic tradition: Mystical Visions — A Private Island Retreat & Medjugorje with Fr. Stash Dailey. (Inside The Vatican Pilgrimages)

A Journey Rooted in Prayer and Purpose

This special pilgrimage brings together sacred destinations and spiritual enrichment — from the serene shores of a private retreat island in Croatia to the deeply prayerful village of Medjugorje, Bosnia and Herzegovina, renowned worldwide as a place of Marian devotion. (Inside The Vatican Pilgrimages)

Led by Fr. Stash Dailey, a priest known for his reverent celebration of the Eucharist and devotion to prayer, this journey is designed to deepen your relationship with Christ and Our Lady. Along the way, you’ll have the opportunity for daily Mass, guided reflections, fellowship with fellow pilgrims, and meaningful encounters with God’s grace. (Inside The Vatican Pilgrimages)

What Makes This Pilgrimage Extraordinary

Private Island Retreat in Croatia – A tranquil setting for rest, prayer, and discipleship before entering into the heart of your pilgrimage experience. (Inside The Vatican Pilgrimages)

Medjugorje — Shrine of Our Lady – A place where millions have journeyed in search of peace, spiritual renewal, and conversion. Medjugorje has become one of the most visited pilgrimage sites in the Catholic world since Marian apparitions were first reported there in 1981. (Wikipedia)

Daily Mass and Prayer – Participate in the heart of Catholic worship together with your pilgrimage community.

Moments of Reflection and Silence – Time set aside for personal prayer, journaling, and sacramental encounters.

Why This Matters to Us

This journey is not just travel — it’s a pilgrimage of the heart. And even more, a portion of the pilgrimage proceeds will benefit the Bridgettine Sisters in Columbus, Ohio, supporting their life of prayer, hospitality, and service to the Church. Your participation lifts up a community that lives out the Gospel daily in humble devotion. 🙏

Who Is This For?

Whether you are:

  • seeking a deeper prayer life,
  • longing for spiritual healing,
  • yearning for peace in the midst of life’s demands,
  • or simply wanting to walk more closely with Christ —
