Pilgrimage Churches

Bishop McManus has designated 10 churches in the Diocese of Worcester as pilgrimage churches, offering opportunities for prayer, reconciliation, indulgences, and celebrations. Below you will find a list of those churches and links to the parish websites. Opening hours will vary by church. Don't forget to bring your passport and get a stamp for each church you visit! 

Pilgrims may receive a plenary indulgence for their visits by fulfilling the requirements outlined by Bishop McManus in the passport books.
