Baltimore Jubilee Pilgrimage
June 21, 2025
Bishop Lopes has designated Mount Calvary Church—our sister Ordinariate parish in Baltimore—as a pilgrimage site for the Jubilee Year. Devout participation in the pilgrimage enables one to obtain the same plenary indulgence as traveling through the Holy Doors of one of the four basilicas in Rome.
Registration is not necessary to join the group, but it is necessary to reserve a spot on the bus (from SJB to Baltimore and back) and lunch. Those traveling to Baltimore independently are welcome to join us without notice at the following locations and times:
10:30-10:45 am*: Arrive at Mount Calvary Church, Jubilee Prayers
*depending on traffic and the arrival of the bus group, Mass and lunch times will be adjusted accordingly
11:00-11:30 am: Sung Mattins (Morning Prayer), Confessions available
11:30 am: Solemn Mass (Homilist: The Rev'd David Ousley)
12:30 pm: Lunch in the undercroft (Chick-fil-A)
