For the Spiritual Seeking Traveler


Delight in the journey as you embark on Passionists’ driven path to enlightenment. Upon check- in you are invited to take a deep breath – open your eyes and mind to see the world in a new way.

    “So, while we cannot state that ‘This is what we do’,
    can we affirm that ‘This is what we believe’ – we are
    thinking, living, and praying into a future where we will
    meet the crucified in ways never imagined”
