About Us
The Way of Remembering Pilgrimage into African spirituality is an exciting, hands-on participatory immersion into the culture, spirituality, and history of Benin. The study tour addresses the topics of slavery, reconciliation, spirituality, and seeks ways to strengthen humanity and the world in which we live. Taking place in the Republic of Benin this journey typically takes place in the Kingdom of Akbanankin. The conclusion of the pilgrimage allows participants to go deeper into African spirituality through sessions taught by a team of African traditional healers and spiritual leaders led by President of PROMETRA International, Dr. Erick Gbodossou.
