Beginning next week we are going to bring you highlights of a 29-day pilgrimage to Italy from a couple departing the U.S. on September 15th and arriving in the “Eternal City” the following day. This is their 6th personal “Spiritual Pilgrimage”. It is an ambitious itinerary filled with beautiful Shrines and Sacred Sites and we are truly blessed that they were willing to share their special pilgrimage with us. Join us each day as we travel along with them on their Journey of Love for Our Lord and His Blessed Mother. Please keep them in your prayers.
