Mother Cabrini Shrine, Golden

A beautiful place for prayer, and the home of a great patroness of Colorado. I love making small pilgrimages up here every so often to pray and reflect. Here’s a basic itinerary you can use! Typically, I will start by praying a Divine Mercy Chaplet as I walk down to the fountains that have the miraculous water. I drink the water and say a prayer to enter into Jesus’ Thirst. Then, I will pray the stations of the cross up to the Jesus statue. After some silence at the top, I will pray a rosary on the way back down the stairs and end with a prayer in the Chapel. If you can attend Mass while here, even better. Be sure to check out the gift shop and learn the history of Mother Cabrini and this holy site.

Great place to clear mind and soul. The stairs walking up the shrine is little hard for people who’s not use to elevation but the spirits around you will help you get through it. Looks of little reads as you walk through the stairs of station of the cross. Great visit and nice overlooking view when you reach the top. You can even see downtown when clouds are clear. Quiet place and beautiful scenery. Pray and meditate.
