A Catholic Pilgrim’s Progress

And it shall come to pass after this, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy: your old men shall dream dreams, and your young men shall see visions. Moreover upon my servants and handmaids in those days I will pour forth my spirit (Joel 2:28–29).

Brian Geraghty visited Santa Croce in Gerusalemme May 25 and 26, joining us in the choir and refectory. Brian also came to the novitiate Rosary in the chapel of the Madonna di Buon Aiuto on Saturday afternoon, leading a decade in English.

Brian left Rome for Poland on the Vigil of Pentecost after First Vespers. Fra Ryan Maria was kind enough to drive him and his enormous backpack to the train station. Brian’s plans were to stop in Vienna for the Pentecost Mass in Saint Stephen’s Cathedral and then continue on to Wadowice, Jasna Gora, and Auschwitz.
