Diego Goes to Rome With St Michael’s
Donation protected
Hi, I’m Diego, and I attend St Michael’s Preparatory School.
I’ve been working diligently in my classes, reaching first honors, taking AP courses, and starting the Creative Writing Club of which I am the president.
Every year, during Christmas break, the St Michael's Junior class goes to Rome to stay in the Norbertine Abbey at the Vatican.
We'll visit Assisi, the Colosseum, La Verna, Loreto, Holy Valley of Rieti and several other towns and shrines.
This is a spectacular opportunity to tour Rome and the surrounding cities with the local priests and seminarians who know the area very well.
We will leave the day after Christmas and spend New Year's Eve ringing in a new decade in beautiful Rome. We return home on January 9th 2020 with a layover in Zurich.
Our trip consists of daily Mass, tours of the Sistine Chapel, St Peter's Basilica, Museums, and several other excursions with our Norbertine guides.
I will need to raise funds, not only for the trip but for extra expenses and meals. I also need to purchase warm clothes for the cold winter in Italy.
I will be over the moon with any size donation.
As a thank you gift, I’d like to send you the first five chapters of my novel, Gears of the Universe. Just send me a message. I hope you’ll enjoy it.
Also, here is a link to a video of me singing a Latin Chant - something I learned at St Michael’s.

Thank you for helping me achieve my goal. Any amount I receive over my goal amount will help me further my studies and formation at St Michael’s.
Grātiās tibi agō.
