A special moment from the archives 💙

In 2006, at the HCPT Trust Mass celebrating our 50th anniversary, our founder Brother Michael Strode shared this prayer with us.

20 years on, as we journey towards 70 years in Lourdes, his words still speak to the heart of HCPT.

[HCPT @HCPT]

70 years. One place. So many memories. Lourdes has been home to HCPT for generations and this is where it all began. 💙

[HCPT @HCPT]

The countdown is ON to our Easter Pilgrimage 2026, and this one’s a big one!

We’re celebrating 70 YEARS of HCPT, fun, memories, everyday miracles… together in love.

Let’s go. 💙
