Additional Trip Information
Trip Patron
St. Paul – in whose footsteps we will walk and sail – is the greatest of all missionary saints and one of the greatest saints in the history of the Church. Saint Paul walked more than 20,000 miles on four missionary journeys throughout the ancient world, preaching, writing and organizing the early Church along the way. Along with Saint Peter, Saint Paul was martyred in Rome during the persecution of the emperor Nero in or around the year 67 AD. As our trip patron, we will pray to St. Paul before and during the trip, asking this incredible man to protect us on our pilgrimage!
“The Church is like a great ship being pounded by the waves of life’s different stresses. Our duty is not to abandon ship, but to keep her on her course.“
