In March 2000, Lydia Ruyle and Cecilia Corcoran of the Goddess GATE's Franciscan Sisters of Perpetual Adoration led a pilgrimage to Goddess images and sites around Mexico City. "This was a specially designed 12-day program and I don't think these women missed seeing much!"
For more context, here's Cecy's account of what we were up to, along with the trip flyer and itinerary. Also, here's an image of one of Lydia's goddess banners, Mandala. Lydia's website has lots more to offer, and The Goddess Gathering Retrospective documents those of her banners that flew in Peru in 1999. Finally, here's the trip images in another format.
Following are thumbnail photo images from the trip. So the complete loading of this Web page may take a while. Once that happens, clicking on any one of the images will load a larger version (actual size determined by specs of a particular monitor or printer).
