'''Saint set jetting''' is a form of religious tourism and [[pilgrimage]] in which enthusiasts, often dubbed "halo hoppers" or "sanctuary stalkers," visit hyper-specific historical locations tied to the lives of [[Catholic saints]]. Analogous to set jetting—the practice of traveling to film locations from movies and television—these "saint sightings" emphasize intimate, human-scale traces of holiness, such as the exact church pew where a saint received their [[First Communion]], the apartment blessed by a future pope, or the hospital ward where a saint tended the sick. Unlike grand pilgrimage sites like [[Lourdes]] or [[St. Peter's Basilica]], saint set jetting highlights overlooked spots that invite visitors to "walk in the footsteps" of saints, fostering a sense of personal connection to their everyday struggles and graces. | '''Saint set jetting''' is a form of religious tourism and [[pilgrimage]] in which enthusiasts, often dubbed "halo hoppers" or "sanctuary stalkers," visit hyper-specific historical locations tied to the lives of [[Catholic saints]].
