DRAWN TO LOVE,
EXPECTANT WITH LONGING
A Julian of Norwich Guided Spiritual Pilgrimage
WHERE: London and Norwich, UK
WHEN: Sun., May 31 – Fri., June 5, 2026
COST: $1650-$1800 per person
THE PILGRIMAGE EXPERIENCE
Julian, a 14th century mystic and anchoress in Norwich, England, experienced 16 visions with subsequent divine wisdom that were posthumously shared and published in Revelations of Divine Love. Her peers and contemporaries were drawn to her as a spiritual director, and she continues to provide guidance and nurture to longing souls of the 21st century.
Journey with us on a 6 day pilgrimage to Norwich, where we will visit the reconstructed site of her cell and church, stay at the All Hallows Guesthouse on the church property, explore and enjoy the beautiful medieval city of Norwich. This guided spiritual pilgrimage will offer space, time and resources for group and individual spiritual reflection.
