The 2026 National Eucharistic Pilgrimage has the theme, "One Nation Under God," and will travel through most of the 13 original colonies. As part of the pilgrim’s stop in the Archdiocese of Baltimore, St. Mary’s Parish will host the pilgrims on Wednesday, June 10, and Thursday, June 11.

We are delighted to welcome the 2026 National Eucharistic Pilgrimage to St. Mary’s Parish, Annapolis, on June 10 and 11. We have had Perpetual Adoration at our parish for the past 30 years. This pilgrimage is a wonderful witness to Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament.

On June 10, according to their website, they “will process about 1 mile and a half from St. Mary's Parish, a Catholic congregation served by the Redemptorist Order, and pass by the grounds of the U.S. Naval Academy and the Maryland State House. We will end the procession at St. Mary's with sunset adoration.” The timeline for the Eucharistic Procession and Sunset Adoration is 6 to 8:30 pm.

On June 11 before leaving for the next part of their journey, the pilgrims will attend 8 am Mass at St. Mary's Church (please note the location change). Help us send the pilgrims off to the next part of their journey in the Diocese of Wilmington by coming to Mass.
