The Two Shrines Pilgrimage was established in 2016 to pray for the reconversion of Scotland following the model of the Chartres Pilgrimage. It takes place over three days each year, beginning on the fourth Saturday in July; pilgrims walk from the National Shrine of St Andrew in St Mary’s Cathedral, Edinburgh, to the ruins of St Andrew’s mediaeval shrine in St Andrews, a distance of around sixty miles. As at Chartres, the programme incorporates the Traditional Latin Mass and devotions.
This year the pilgrimage will take place from Saturday 27 July to 29 July. To register or volunteer for the pilgrimage, or to make a donation, please use the links below.
Questions about the pilgrimage should be emailed to the President of the Confraternity, Mark Hamid, using the following address: cosn.president@gmail.com.
Walk the Two Shrines Pilgrimage
The deadline to register this year is 30 June. Applications received by Whit Monday (20 May) and paid in full by 01 June will qualify for a 25% discount.
Please note that it may be necessary to close registrations earlier than 30 June due to limits on our logistical capacities; pilgrims are therefore encouraged to book early!
Volunteer for the Two Shrines Pilgrimage
Our pilgrimage would simply not be possible without the contribution of our volunteers. This year we are offering volunteers a 50% discount on the cost of walking for each day volunteered, to allow pilgrims to contribute to both elements of our apostolate.
Donate to the Two Shrines Pilgrimage
Please consider making a donation, even if you are unable to attend. The Confraternity is a charity and relies entirely on pilgrimage fees and donations to deliver its apostolate, so the generosity of our donors is greatly appreciated.
