Montserrat Pilgrimages is named for Our Lady of Montserrat because of her importance to the life of St. Ignatius. He stood before the Blessed Mother, the Black Madonna, Our Lady of Montserrat and here he surrendered his sword and picked up a pilgrim staff. This moment signifies one of choice in the spiritual life. Giving up the symbol of his old life, laying it at the foot of our Lady, was a choice he made. And from there, a new life took root. Montserrat Pilgrimages are an invitation and a choice to deepen and explore your own faith and spirituality through global travel.
