Spirit Catholic Radio invites you to join us for a truly memorable journey through faith, local history, and community on our “Churches of the Bohemian Alps Jubilee Tour” this August!
Climb aboard a comfortable Arrow Stage Line bus as we set off to explore the beautiful, rural churches tucked away in an area affectionately known as the Bohemian Alps—a charming part of Nebraska rich in Czech heritage and Catholic tradition.
TUESDAY, AUGUST 19: Tour bus leaves from the Lincoln Diocese Chancery Office (itinerary and tickets below)
WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 20: Tour bus leaves from Omaha (itinerary and tickets below)
Our pilgrimage will be guided by Fr. Kenneth Borowiak, pastor at St. Joseph in Friend, NE, who will share his knowledge of the churches and the area’s spiritual roots along the way. You’ll also enjoy the company of Spirit Mornings co-hosts Jen Brown and Damian Montez, who will add their own joyful energy along the route.
This experience wouldn’t be complete without a taste of tradition—a hearty Czech meal at Oak Creek Sporting Club in Brainard will be served for lunch and is included in your ticket price. The menu includes Roast pork, Dumplings, Gravy, Sauerkraut, Corn, Roll & butter, Kolache, and Iced tea/coffee. Bottled water will be available on the bus. Lunch is provided in an air-conditioned facility with restrooms available. There is also a restroom on the bus and at select pilgrimage stops.
Want to remember the day? You’ll have the option to purchase a “Churches of the Bohemian Alps Jubilee Tour” T-shirt while reserving your seats as a keepsake of this unique experience.
$60 early bird pricing through Sunday, July 27th. Pricing then goes to $70.
