Amayrani Higueldo-Sanchez

Perpetual Pilgrim from the Archdiocese of Philadelphia

The National Eucharistic Revival is sponsoring a National Eucharistic Pilgrimage that will process with Jesus in the Eucharist across the United States of America, tracing the shape of a cross over our country.  A group of Perpetual Pilgrims, young people ages 19–29, have been chosen to accompany the Blessed Sacrament from May 17 to July 21, 2024, traveling a combined distance of 6,500 miles and stopping at many parishes and holy sites along their route.

The Archdiocese of Philadelphia rejoices to have two of our own, Sarah Cahill and Amayrani Higueldo-Sanchez, serving as Perpetual Pilgrims.


Amayrani Higueldo-Sanchez, age 26, is from St. Patrick Parish in Norristown and will travel along the the entire St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Route of the National Eucharistic Pilgrimage, from New Haven, CT through Philadelphia to Indianapolis, IN (see map above). As a Perpetual Pilgrim Amayrani will spend her time on pilgrimage adoring Jesus, giving witness to her faith, and carrying with her all prayer intentions entrusted to her care. She will be commissioned as a Perpetual Pilgrim by Archbishop Pérez on April 17, 2024.

Support Amayrani! As part of her service, Amayrani must fundraise $3,000-5,000 to provide her with a small stipend, covering the cost of her travel gear and personal expenses since Perpetual Pilgrims will not be able to work for the 2 months while on pilgrimage. We invite you to consider making a financial gift towards this goal and to send Amayrani your personal prayer intentions for her to carry while on pilgrimage.


Amayrani has reached her fundraising goal – no further donations requested.

All funds collected by the Archdiocese of Philadelphia through the link above will be submitted in full to: National Eucharistic Congress, Inc.
