Hi there! Our names are Stephanie and Natalie, we are cousins who are planning to visit Rome in July of the year 2025. As young adults, we both have been working hard to sustain our faith journey, doing our best to be the Christians God calls us to be. By the grace of God, we have been given the opportunity to attend a pilgrimage to the Vatican City in Rome! It has been both our dreams to walk the grounds of St. Peter's Basilica where the pope resides and various sacred sites where many of our Saintly brothers and sisters are present. This is a pilgrimage so the idea here is to have a walk with God and visit these sacred sites to enrich our spiritual life. This trip has a length of a week and a half and we would be traveling with a group from our parish, St. Anthony of Padua, Fresno. We are very fortunate to have this opportunity at our fingertips and would greatly appreciate any donation given towards this pilgrimage. We also want to serve our community by offering you the chance to leave your prayers in the comments when you donate. All the prayers left in the comments will be written in a notebook and we will take this book with us and offer up your prayers while at the Vatican! We appreciate all the support and ask for your prayers as we prepare to take on this spiritual journey.

From the bottom of our hearts, we thank you!

God bless you all!
