Pilgrimage for the Unborn: 67 Miles of Prayer Across Des Moines with AJ Brown & Bryan Gonzalez - 04/13/2026

A bold and faith-filled journey is coming to Des Moines. AJ Brown discusses his upcoming “Pilgrimage for the Unborn,” a 33-hour, 67-mile walk connecting Catholic parishes across the metro with prayer, sacrifice, and public witness. Beginning with Mass and a rosary, the pilgrimage will include stops at churches throughout the area, praying 20 rosaries along the way.

Brian Gonzalez of Innervisions explains how listeners can get involved—whether by walking a segment, pledging support per mile or per rosary, or contributing financially. With a $5,000 matching gift challenge and opportunities to join along the route, this event invites the entire community to take part in a visible, prayerful stand for life.

Listeners will also hear the inspiring origin story behind the pilgrimage, how AJ is preparing physically and spiritually, and how this initiative aims to unite the community in prayer, sacrifice, and awareness.
