Pilgrimage to Italy

Written by 
Youth group “J-Walkers” was on a Pilgrimage to Rome and Italy. They spend over two weeks visiting Vatican, Holy City and other shrines in Italy. Despite the fact that this adventure ended too soon it gave a lot more than just souvenirs and vague memories. Friendship was strengthened through common prayer, the sharing of joy, sorrow, laughter, fatigue and pizza. A daily sharing of positive emotions helped to perceive the grace of God in their lives. Being in a country where you can meet not only miracles but also visible evidence of their existence strengthen not only our faith but also the consciousness of the presence of God in our modern world and in our everyday life.
