Pilgrimage to Greece or Cyprus

A Pilgrimage to Greece and Cyprus brings pilgrims into direct contact with the apostolic foundations of the Church and the living heart of Christianity. These lands were among the very first to receive the Gospel, preached by the apostles themselves, and they continue to preserve an unbroken tradition of worship, theology, and monastic life. The landscapes of Greece and Cyprus are inseparable from the pages of the New Testament, where the faith was proclaimed, communities were established, and the early Church took shape.

In Greece, our pilgrimages follow the footsteps of the Apostle Paul through places such as Thessaloniki, Philippi, Corinth, Delphi, and Athens, where the Gospel first encountered the philosophical world of the Greeks. We also visit centres of monastic and spiritual life, including Meteora, with its monasteries perched atop towering rock formations, and other historic monasteries and churches that continue the prayer and ascetic witness of the Orthodox Church. These sites reveal how theology, worship, and daily Christian life developed within the Hellenic world and were passed down through the centuries.

Cyprus holds a special place in Christian history as the first island ruled by a Christian governor, converted through the apostolic mission of St Paul and St Barnabas. Pilgrimages on the island include visits to ancient churches, monasteries, and archaeological sites associated with the earliest Christian communities, such as Paphos, Salamis, Kition, Trymythous, as well as places of historical interest such as Kourion, Amathous and the monsteries in the Troodos Mountains. A Pilgrimage in Greece and Cyprus combines apostolic history with living faith, allowing pilgrims not only to learn about the origins of Christianity, but to experience the continuity of prayer, worship, and tradition that has been faithfully preserved in these lands from the first century to the present day.

Each of our pilgrimage packages is custom-tailored to fit your group's needs. If you are interested in organising a trip to Greece or Cyprus, please contact us to discuss details.
