Maidens on a Mission: Help Us Walk to Chartres!

Help Send The Maidens of the Miraculous Medal to the Chartres Pilgrimage!

We are raising funds to support a group of dedicated teenage girls from Mater Ecclesiae, our Latin Mass parish in Berlin, NJ, who have been given the incredible opportunity to participate in the Chartres Pilgrimage in France this Pentecost. These young women are members of The Maidens of the Miraculous Medal, a parish-based group focused on growing in virtue, Marian devotion, and traditional Catholic faith.

This 3-day, 60-mile pilgrimage from Paris to Chartres is more than a physical journey—it's a profound spiritual experience where thousands of Catholics from around the world walk in prayer, penance, and joy. For our girls, this pilgrimage represents a chance to deepen their faith, strengthen their commitment to Our Lady, and be a visible witness of youthful devotion in a secular world.

We are still in need of $4,000 to help cover remaining costs including airfare, lodging, and transportation. The girls and their families have been working hard to raise funds on their own, but they need a little extra help to make this dream a reality.

As a thank-you for your support, the girls will carry the intentions of all our donors with them on the pilgrimage. If you would like them to pray for a specific intention, please feel free to leave it in the comments when you donate.

Your support—whether financial or through prayer—means so much to these young women. Thank you for helping them walk this sacred path!

O Mary, conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee
