“In the One, we are one.”
Be pilgrims, not tourists in life, fully experience love and hope, people must approach the journey of life as pilgrims and not just sightseers seeking the perfect selfie. Do not be like superficial sightseers, blind to the beauty around you, never discovering the meaning of the roads you take, interested only in a few fleeting moments to capture in a selfie. Tourists do this. Pilgrims, on the other hand, immerse themselves fully in the places they encounter, listen to the message they communicate and make them a part of their quest for happiness and fulfillment. Pope Francis.
In recent years, I have had the joy of organizing pilgrimages to Rome, Assisi, Siena, Sicily, and more. Each trip has been a grace-filled opportunity to walk together in faith, encounter Christ in sacred places, and return home renewed in joy and friendship.
I would be grateful for the opportunity to begin this conversation and explore how we might offer a meaningful journey of faith, culture, and friendship in 2026/2027.
Please feel free to email or text me with your thoughts.
