Jimmy, we have been praying for you and there will be a vigil for the
pilgrims in Rome on Tuesday. I can't believe you have been celebrating mass in
such historical and unbelievable surroundings. You must be able to feel the
souls of people that came before you to pray just as you are now in the 21st
century. You are in our thoughts every day and every night. We hope you are
finding an inner peace that will change the way you encounter your God.
Love, Mom and Dad.

I've been following your trip on the churches web page. You guys have
been on the go since you got there. I hope you're enjoying your time. And most
importantly, I pray that you are able to keep your thoughts on the most
important thing in your life, God. Stay safe, and I will see you next week.

Jimmy, we are viewing your trip by the website and can't believe how
neat it is to keep up with your travels by video, pictures and the written word.
This is such a great time for you to become closer with your god and get back to
your spiritual breath. Take time to endulge yourself in the culture, savor the
food and the wine. It looks like you are experiencing a wonderful adventure.
Stormey misses you and keeps looking for you in your room. However, he is eating
his oatmeal. I'm sure you figured out where to keep your valuables. I know it
was a concern for you. Keep a diary, so you can go back and read what you were
thinking and feeling on this trip. We are very proud of you. God bless, love,
mom and dad
