Shalom Catholic Tours

Follow us to know more. Our pilgrimages imbibe a flavor of attending a retreat with access to a Catholic priest, Holy mass, Spiritual advice and much more.

Commissioned in 2014 in Melbourne Australia, Shalom Tours has since been leading groups to Israel, Jordan, Egypt, and to many of the famous Catholic pilgrimage sites in Europe on a very affordable and competitive cost structure. Our focus is on smaller groups with customized/tailored itineraries and have included global events like the Canonization of Mother Teresa in 2016 in Rome and the Centenary of the Miracle of the Dancing Sun in Fatima in 2017. We also feature cultural, historical and culinary activities as a matter of making the trip more memorable. Shalom Tours in essence is a global spiritual vehicle for pilgrims to join us via our land only packages as well as fully serviced options. Being a home grown family style operation Shalom tours also operates on a very affordable and competitive cost structure reflecting the basic tenet of the company to make it totally affordable for people to visit the Holy land at least once in their life time.

Hi everyone! 💖

With November just around the corner, We’re giving away *3 copies of Purgatory* by Fr. F. X. Schouppe, S.J. 📚

We’d love to hear your thoughts on these important questions about our faith:

1. Do you think Purgatory is real?
2. Does God really permit us to go to Hell?
3. Do you think you will go to Heaven as soon as you die?

•To enter, simply DM me your answers to all three questions.
We’ll choose the three most thoughtful responses, and each person will receive a copy of the book.

Thank you for taking the time to participate!

Blessings,
Karen 💖

🌹 October | Month of the Holy Rosary🌹

The Catholic Church dedicates October to the Holy Rosary, with the Feast of Our Lady of the Rosary celebrated on October 7.

In 1883, Pope Leo XIII dedicated the month to the Holy Rosary encouraging the faithful to pray for the needs of the Church.

This month, consecrate yourself to our Heavenly Mother, pray the Rosary daily, or join a public Rosary in your parish.

Let us make it an October to remember.🙏🏼💙

“Bless the LORD, O you his angels, you mighty ones who do his word, obeying the voice of his word!”

10 years ago, on our pilgrimage to Europe for Mother Teresa’s canonisation, Audrey, pictured here in the hat, joined us. At 80, she was the oldest pilgrim I had ever taken on pilgrimage.

But age certainly did not slow her down! She was the life of the group, always encouraging others and leading by example as she kept up with the long walks and queues that are part of any pilgrimage.

She would sit next to me on the bus and was always so supportive and caring while I led the group. Her warmth, encouragement and wonderful spirit made her truly memorable.

As the founder of Shalom Catholic Tours, I was deeply saddened to hear of Audrey’s passing recently. I feel blessed to have shared that pilgrimage with her and will always cherish her memory in my heart.

May her soul rest in peace. 🙏🏼💖

A reminder that we don’t always need to understand the path to trust the One leading us. Sometimes, the journey is simply an invitation to surrender, have faith, and keep walking. 🤍
