The National Eucharistic Pilgrimage is just a couple of months away, and while dozens are expected to take part in some of that journey, two dozen have pledged to walk the whole way.

The 24 young Catholics will trek from four different starting points all across the country, eventually meeting in Indianapolis for the Eucharistic Congress this July.

They are split into groups of six and will walk more than 6,500 miles.

More than half of the perpetual pilgrims are undergraduate or graduate students, and they will be accompanied by a rotating group of 30 Franciscan Friars of the Renewal.
