Shrine of Christ’s Passion


ELMHURST, Ill. – Join us on Wednesday, March 27 from 9 a.m.-4 p.m. for a visit to The Shrine of Christ’s Passion, an interactive half-mile winding pathway that begins with the Last Supper and Garden of Gethsemane.  We’ll then journey through the Passion of the Christ as depicted in the Stations of the Cross. The Journey consists of 40 life-size bronze statues and each setting has a listening station where you can hear a description of the scene along with a meditation.  The Shrine is also now the permanent home of Our Lady of the New Millennium.  Cart transportation is available for those with mobility challenges; please indicate at registration if you will need cart transportation.  We’ll enjoy a plated lunch together following the Shrine visit at Teibel’s Restaurant.  Registration deadline is March 8, and fee is $50 resident/$55 non-resident. For more information or to register, call The Abbey at (630) 993-8193.
