One Last Look

Our final day in Rome started with the most beautiful Holy Mass I have ever attended! We celebrated Holy Mass with about 30 priests concelebrating in the chapel at the Casa where Father Avram lives. It was just incredible! Our family was the congregation. I love listening to them sing and pray in unison.

After Holy Mass, we decided that we needed to have a Pope's Lunch in Rome, so off we went for pizza. We decided we would get gelato later along the way, so we headed to the Basilica of St Paul's Outside the Walls. We next visited the Basilica of St John Lateran and the Church where St Charles' heart is displayed. Throughout our trip, we were able to visit all the saints that we set out to visit! Mission accomplished.

Returning to our hotel, we were surprised that we were able to pack all the clothes back along with all the items we gathered along the way. We were packed tight, but we did it. After a little siesta, we caught up with Father Avram and his friend, for our final meal in Italy. I will truly miss the excellent food!

We met many people on this journey. One of our new friends is Fr Miro, from Croatia. The kids loved him (we did too.) Keep him and all the priests at the Casa in your prayers! God Bless.
