The Christus Rex Pilgrimage is a labour of love – organised entirely by volunteers, without staff, offices, or major sponsors. Each year, hundreds of pilgrims walk from Ballarat to Bendigo to honour the Kingship of Christ. Behind the scenes, a small group of volunteers work year-round to make this possible.

Registration fees are kept as low as possible to ensure the Pilgrimage remains accessible to all. However, these fees do not cover all the costs. We rely on the generosity of benefactors and pilgrims to make up the shortfall – for essential items such as first aid, buses, hire costs, equipment and insurance.

Your donation helps us:

  • Keep registration fees affordable for families and students
  • Provide safe, well-organised logistics and support services
  • Plan for the future and grow this important apostolate

Whether you’re a pilgrim, past participant, or simply someone who believes in the mission of Christus Rex, your gift – no matter the size – will make a meaningful difference.

On this Feast of Pentecost, as our friends in France journey from Paris to Chartres, we invite you to walk with us this October from Ballarat to Bendigo – a public act of faith in honour of Christ the King.

This year marks the 100th anniversary of Quas Primas, the encyclical that instituted the Feast of Christ the King – a fitting time to join this tradition of prayer, penance, and pilgrimage.
