Available Right NowJourney helps Catholics to focus on God by seeking silence amid the world’s noiseHoly men and women religious who devote their lives to God and prayer inspired Catholic pilgrims during the archdiocesan summer pilgrimage on Aug. 6-8 to three monasteries in southern Indiana and northern Kentucky. “It is good that we are here,” Msgr. Frederick Easton, spiritual director, told 53 pilgrims in his homily during an 8 a.m. Mass at SS. Peter and Paul Cathedral in Indianapolis before the three-day bus trip.
