The Pilgrim Forum

The Pilgrim Forum is a series dedicated to sharing information and spurring thought and discussion around the basic tenets of the Catholic faith and tradition – specifically, the Apostles’ Creed. Once a semester, speakers will examine a portion of the Creed, breaking it open in thought-provoking and accessible ways which invite attendees to understand more deeply what they believe.

This series is made possible through the generosity of Dan Ritter. 

Pilgrim Lectures are free and open to the public, but require a reservation. Spring 2019 reservations are due on or before April 23rd. Doors open at 7:15 a.m.; continental breakfast will be served with our compliments.
