This was truly a wonderful trip! It was filled with wonderful people, beautiful sites, delicious food, and very comfortable accommodations. I have to admit, Father Ken Geraci was my favorite part of the pilgrimage! He brought the entire experience to another level and made it even more meaningful and enjoyable. Libby was absolutely amazing—she was on top of everything and made the trip so easy and enjoyable for all of us. We never had to worry about a thing! It was such a fun and memorable experience. I can’t wait to go on another pilgrimage with Cor Jesu!

The trip was amazing. I didn’t realize how many saints there were in Montreal and Quebec and all the beautiful churches. I am so grateful for Libby and Theresa and for Libby getting Father Ken Geraci as our spiritual director. I am looking forward to the next pilgrimage.

The Devout Life retreat was both a deeply spiritual and exhilarating experience! I highly recommend this silent retreat for one who is looking to elevate their prayer life and take a step closer to touching the hand of Jesus. The thoughtful daily schedule which included provocative group meditations as well as peaceful, serene and prayerful individual reflections were enhanced by the warm and inviting accommodations as well as the delicious homemade meals. Libby and her team planned every detail meticulously! This retreat at Cor Jesu is a treasure not to be missed! Thank you for enriching my relationship with our Lord!

Wonderful trip! Thankful I was able to be a part of a once in a lifetime experience. Thanks to Libby and staff for keeping us safe and on task and for the amazing booklet. Father Jerome and his insights and commentaries are always a bonus. The accommodations were exceptional and a big kudos to our bus driver who took his responsibility of safe travel to heart. Thanks to everyone who played a part in making this a memorable experience.

The pilgrimage to the Beatification of Fulton Sheen was so thoughtfully and carefully planned by Libby and the Mission of Cor Jesu that all we pilgrims had to do was follow Libby’s guidance and directions, and simply focus on the profound and momentous experience before us. There were many logistical challenges that came with organizing this pilgrimage; yet from beginning to end, it was as if Libby and staff were holding our hand throughout the entire journey, anticipating needs, answering questions, and making sure everyone knew where they needed to be. After the Beatification, there was a long line of buses waiting to leave. Libby had the foresight to ask the police about the wait time for the buses and, based on that information, she was able to redirect our bus and spare us what would almost certainly have been a very long wait. It was just one small example of how she was constantly watching out for everyone and thinking ahead. Being present for the Beatification of Fulton Sheen was a blessing in itself, and having the opportunity to experience it through the Mission of Cor Jesu made it all the more special.
