By signing below, Participant affirms that all information provided during registration is true and accurate and agrees to be legally bound by the terms of this Agreement.
Reservation & Payment
A non-refundable deposit of $1,000 USD is required to reserve your space.
Your reservation is not confirmed until your deposit has been received.
The remaining balance must be paid in full by August 21, 2026, unless otherwise agreed upon through an approved payment plan.
Failure to complete payment by the final payment deadline may result in cancellation of Participant's reservtion, forfeiture of all payments made, and release of the reserved space.

If minimum enrollment is not met, the pilgrimage may be canceled. In this event, all payments made directly toward the pilgrimage will be refunded in full.

Participant Cancellation
The $1,000 deposit is non-refundable.
If Participant cancels after making additional payments, refunds may be issued only if the Participant's space is filled by another participant, less any unrecoverable expenses incurred by the Company. Any such refund shall be at the sole discretion of Aureli Rose LLC.
No refunds will be issued after the final payment deadline unless the Participant's space is successfully filled.
