Today we visited Saint Paul's Outside the Walls. We were able to pray at the tomb of St. Paul. Many Sisters mentioned that they brought your intentions with them there.

At the Basilica there were two side chapels that were particularly meaningful. In the Chapel of St. Stephen, St. Ignatius and his brothers professed their vows. In the Chapel next to that one, St. Bridget of Sweden used to pray. Once while she was praying, the Corpus on the cross turned and looked at her. The people in the chapel with her at the time also saw this miracle.

The time in Rome has been a gift. We have had two wonderful tour guides. Yesterday it was Monsignor Osborn and this week we have Fr. Roger Landry. Both are bringing Scripture to life at each holy site we visit.

Be assured of our continued prayers.
