Archbishop Lori’s Homily: Filipino Pilgrimage in Honor of Our Lady of Peace and Good Voyage

I am happy and honored to be a part of this pilgrimage in honor of Our Lady of Peace and Good Voyage. For nearly 400 years, Blessed Mary has watched over sailors and travelers who faced the dangers of the sea as they made their way to and from the Philippines.
