Named the Saint Katharine Drexel Route, this cross-country journey begins in Indianapolis, the site of last summer’s National Eucharistic Congress, and will visit multiple dioceses, including Tulsa and Oklahoma City, on its way to Los Angeles.
On Friday, May 30, the Oklahoma leg of the pilgrimage officially begins with Opening Mass at Sacred Heart Catholic Church in Miami. Once the Eucharist arrives in Tulsa later that day, a 4.2-mile public procession is planned to begin at approximately 4 p.m. at the University of Tulsa Reynolds Center with a stop at the Parish of Christ the King before arriving at Holy Family Cathedral later that evening.
A Eucharistic Festival is planned from 8 - 10 p.m. at Holy Family Friday night with food and music, followed by overnight Adoration and Mass at 10 a.m. Saturday at the Cathedral before the pilgrims continue on their way to St. Gregory’s Abbey in Shawnee and the Archdiocese of Oklahoma City.
Local volunteers are needed throughout the day at each location along the procession route. Sign up to volunteer here.
