Dingle Way - Ireland
May 3–14, 2027
First Presbyterian Church is offering an 11-day spiritual pilgrimage to Ireland, including seven days walking the Dingle Way along the beautiful coast of the Dingle Peninsula. The guided trek covers approximately 75 miles, followed by several days exploring Dublin.
Along the way, we’ll experience Ireland’s coastal landscapes, villages, early Christian and historic sites, traditional culture, and opportunities for reflection and community. The pilgrimage will be planned and guided in partnership with Wilderness Ireland.


2027 Pilgrimages

Spiritual Journeys Together
Pilgrimage is a spiritual practice of almost all the major world religions. It is a physical journey that represents a deeper spiritual journey. The act of walking moves us from our spiritual status quo towards something more. Jesus was a pilgrim. As a child he came to Jerusalem with his parents and as an adult the passion story unfolds in the midst of a pilgrimage. Jesus was constantly on the go. Let’s join him!
TRIP AT A GLANCE
Space is limited to 16 participants, with a minimum of 12 needed for the pilgrimage to proceed. A refundable $1,000 deposit is due November 30, 2026, with final payment due February 15, 2027.
