One Week Countdown

The final countdown to our pilgrimage has begun ... we depart one week from today! Throughout the pilgrimage, Athens, Greece, will serve as our homebase. We will depart from their on our cruise through the Greek Islands, for our flight to Rome, and for our ride to Corinth. Athens is the cradle of Western civilization, and we will have the opportunity to visit both religious and historical sites, including the Parthenon and other ancient buildings on the Acropolis; the Areopagus, where St. Paul preached a famous sermon to the Athenians; the Catholic Cathedral of St. Dionysius; the Roman Agora; and the National Archeological Museum, one of the most important museums in the world and home to more ancient Greek art than any other museum.
