Wonderful photos Hi Peter,
I cannot thank you enough for sharing your photos, and your narrative, from your trip. It was amazing to see the places I've only heard about, and your stories really put me right there. I'm so happy that you had this wonderful opportunity, and you are very kind to share it with the rest of us.
Thank You. Thanks for your kind comments, there are a handful of folks I really miss at St C and you are certainly among the most prominent.
Peace,
Peter
Sounds awesome Hi Peter, Your story of meeting the other deacons and celebrating Mass with them made me so happy for you, what a special event. Also the thought of this year's Good Friday being all the more emotional for what Jesus suffered really brought it home to me, thinking that you all are walking in the places where it all happened. I'm really enjoying the photos and stories - thank you so much for sharing with all of us. Safe travels.
Hi back from Florida! Hi Peter,
Great photos and captions, and I am enjoying your blog very much. Please carry my prayers with you and say a Hail Mary somewhere for me. Looking forward to more of your blog! Is Patti with you?

This is great!! This blog is wonderful. I studied all of this recently in my humanities class. This is a great once in a life time trip. I will be reading as you go. What a treat.
Green Peter, what wonderful adventure you are having, of course, I'm green with envy! I'm enjoying your pictures, keep them coming. And please pray for me. God bless you!
Foot of the Cross Can not think of any spot on the face of earth that would be as moving as kneeling where the cross stood. Jesus died for our sins and being there one has to relize the cost of our sinfulness.
Love You Son

Understanding You are bringing back many emotions that I also had. It brings tears to my eyes as it did then to think I walked the same places Jesus did. It is a feeling you can't describe.
Prayers Please include us in your prayers as you visit these holy places. I am including you in my prayers, that you may be safe in your travels. Enjoy this unique opportunity.

Wow Thank you for the update, Peter. Your journey sounds amazing and filled with so much emotion and connection to Jesus - I wish we were all there with you. Thank you for taking the petitions to the tomb and then the wall; I will share that with my daughter. Your recounting of walking in Jesus' footsteps makes his life and death that much more real to me and to others, I'm sure. Safe travels.
Your journey Just remember your grueling walking and climbing can not compare to Christ carrying the cross through town to be crucifird. Offer it up my son.
