Catacombs and the Basilica of St. Paul

Saturday, May 24th was a busy day for our Pilgrims for the Young Adult Jubilee Pilgrims. Early in the morning, the pilgrims left their hotel to go and visit the Catacombs. Some of the girls arrived early and got the chance for a quick Italian coffee before the group headed down into the catacombs. Bishop Folda celebrated mass in the catacombs for the pilgrims. After the Catacombs tour the pilgrims enjoyed a picnic in the park before heading to  the Basilica of St. Paul Outside the Walls. The Pilgrims had the opportunity to venerate the tomb of St. Paul. This day was a lot of walking, but everyone did great!
