This Social Media Influencer Visited ALL 94 Basilicas in the US!

Grady Connolly, founder of Social Thomist, has completed a four-year pilgrimage to visit all 94 minor basilicas in the United States.

Connolly began the pilgrimage following his freshman year at The Catholic University of America. He stated that his desire to visit these sanctuaries grew from a daily prayer habit established at the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception in Washington, D.C. Connolly attended the university after receiving an Archdiocesan Scholarship and additional grants that covered his tuition, room, and board.
