Introducing: Our Nation-Wide Shrine Pilgrimage!

Welcome to the pilgrimage and journey of a life time!


My name is Eve Rosemary, I'm a 21 year old chastity public speaker who is going on a nation-wide speaking tour from January-May, 2025. To do so, I've pinpointed Shrines across the country to act as a roadmap, sharing the history, message, and miracles of the Shrines with all of you as I simultaneously traverse the country, sharing the crucial message of chastity with teens.

Before I get too much further, let's journey through why this speaking tour and pilgrimage means so much to me:


When I was in high school, I remember being nick-named the “Jesus girl” in my class. While bothersome at the time, I now wear that title as a badge of honor, with the knowledge that being known in the context of a Loving Father is the greatest recognition. 


At the time, I remember feeling incredibly isolated in my faith, not seeing others my age taking their faith seriously. In talking with my peers at Benedictine College–a renowned Catholic university–I realized I was not alone in this feeling. This inspired me to start The Everyday Saint Podcast, interviewing young Catholics to inspire other young Catholics with the knowledge that they are not alone in the faith, and that a relationship with God is something they can take seriously NOW!


Since the founding of this podcast two years ago, The Everyday Saint has blossomed into social media evangelization, a lifestyle brand featuring my religious artwork, and most rewardingly, a Chastity public speaking ministry. Over the last year, I’ve been able to speak with hundreds of high school students encouraging them to cultivate pure and honoring relationships with God, themselves, and others. The truth is, so many of my peers don’t know where to look for love, and are in need of a messenger to point them in the direction of abounding love: the love of our Heavenly Father.


Now that I am graduating college (December 2024!), I am wasting no time on this God-given mission, and I'm bringing you along with me! Each week, tune into The Everyday Saint Podcast, blog, and social media to see the featured Shrine that week. I'm going all across the country, so you may find a Shrine that is nearer to you than you think!

To get an idea at what this will look like, take a sneak peak at the first few Shrines I'll be visiting and their release dates!
