Five-week US pilgrimage leads to thousands of Americans kneeling before the Eucharist

The 2025 National Eucharistic Pilgrimage concluded in Los Angeles on June 22 after covering 3,300 miles across ten states, stopping in 20 dioceses and drawing thousands of Catholics to public acts of devotion.

The pilgrimage began in Indianapolis on 18 May, the site of last year’s National Eucharistic Congress, and ended 35 days later at the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels. It formed part of the US bishops’ three-year Eucharistic revival, aimed at strengthening belief in the Real Presence of Christ in the Eucharist.
