In the summer months, AOS GB organises pilgrimages to popular shrines. These are days of celebration which usually include Mass or shared prayer, presentations of the work of AOS, picnic lunch and a chance for relaxing or sight-seeing. Port chaplains, ship visitors, parish contacts, office staff and volunteers are onhand to answer questions.
