2025 Walk to Mary will be held on Saturday, May 3rd
The Walk to Mary starts at 7:00 am at Old St. Joseph Church on St. Norbert College campus. There is a prayer service and blessing before the walk starts. Click here for the schedule of events.
The Walk to Mary has become a pilgrimage like no other in the world. We start with St. Joseph (at the National Shrine of St. Joseph) and walk to Mary (at the National Shrine of Our Lady of Champion) to get to Jesus. Our annual pilgrimage has impacted lives and filled hearts with many blessings from the Holy Family.
The 22 mile walk spiritually prepares us for our destination – America’s only Church-approved Marian apparition site, where in 1859, the Blessed Mother appeared to Adele Brise on the site of the National Shrine of Our Lady of Champion in Champion, Wisconsin.
