Journey of Hope: June 2024

In 2010 St. Aloysius began receiving visitors from the United States in late June to take part in the annual celebration of the school patron, St. Aloysius Gonzaga and visit other ministries and attractions in Nairobi. This experience is a spiritual discovery journey that takes people out of their comfort zones to be in solidarity with those that are less fortunate in another part of the world. This experience is enriched with the support of a Jesuit Chaplain, who offers spiritual reflections each day.

The next trip is scheduled for June 2025. St. Al’s Day will be on June 22, 2025. If you would like more information about the visit, please see the 2024 brochure below or contact Cristine Pope at 312-834-6118, cristinepope@schoolofhopekenya.org.

I’m 73 and have had the good fortune to have visited six continents. Still, no trip has been as meaningful, memorable or impactful as my 2017 pilgrimage to Kenya and St. Al’s.
