This morning we were able to follow St. Paul in Rome for his last days visiting the site of his execution and basilica in his honor. Following our tours we had Mass in St. Paul’s, feet from his tomb. We are so blessed! We are now on our way to the Vatican museum to see the many treasures. 

Happy Feast of the Birth of St. John the Baptist.
