independent drive on Thursday. It was here, in the late 1940’s, that the St. John’s Provincial Seminary opened its doors and educated young
men entering the Priesthood. In January of 2006, the Inn at St. John’s opened for business with 118 luxury guestrooms. Check in any time after
3:00pm and enjoy an evening at leisure with dinner on your own. Overnight in Plymouth, MI.
DAY 1: THURSDAY, OCTOBER 21 - DEPART PLYMOUTH | NATIONAL SHRINE OF CROSS IN THE WOODS
Independent departure from home this morning (or Plymouth, MI) allowing ample time to make the drive and meet the group by 11:30am at
The National Shrine of the Cross in the Woods. Home to Our Lady of the Highways, patroness of the pilgrims and travelers that visit this Shrine,
the site includes shrines to The Holy Family and St. Francis of Assisi. The focal point is a 55-foot, 7-ton Crucifix. Celebrate Mass, followed by the
opportunity to tour the Shrine and have time for personal prayer and devotions. Then, drive to Mackinaw City, to board Shepler’s ferry toward
Mackinac Island. Upon arrival on the island, check into the famous Grand Hotel. Since 1887, the Grand Hotel beckons you to a bygone era of
old-world hospitality and charm. Dance to the music of the Grand hotel orchestra and sit in a rocking chair on the world’s longest porch, with
views of the Straits of Mackinac. Settle into your room and enjoy the remainder of the afternoon, at leisure, prior to a welcome group dinner
in the Grand Hotel. Overnight on Mackinac Island.

quality family time as you experience all that Mackinac Island and the Grand Hotel have to offer. Play croquet or bocce ball on the sprawling
lawn. Test your tennis or pickleball skills before relaxing on the famous porch. Jump on a bike or horse drawn carriage to explore, as there
are no automobiles on the entire island. History buffs will want to check out Fort Mackinac, a National Historic Landmark and the sentinel of
the Straits of Mackinac. With guides dressed in period costumes, witness cannon and rifle firing demonstrations, and explore the real history
of Mackinac in 14 original buildings. Then, stroll through the quaint streets of Historic Downtown Mackinac Island featuring a variety of shops,

Stop en-route to Our Lady of Good Help, the only approved Marian apparition site in the United States. In October 1859, Our Lady appeared
here to Sr. Adele Brise telling her to ‘teach the children their catechism’, how to ‘make the sign of the cross’ and how to ‘approach the
sacraments’. Mary ended by saying: ‘That is what I wish you to do. Go and fear nothing, I will help you.’ Celebrate a private Mass in the chapel
followed by a guided tour of the Shrine. Enjoy time at leisure for prayer and reflection. Tonight, take part in a farewell dinner experience.
