Catholic Pilgrimages
This is more than I can imagine. Though thoughts of going to Lourdes did cross my mind in my childhood days, I never really dreamed of going to Europe. Europe! This blows my mind.
So here at the lobby of the Century Park Sheraton, I dropped by at the travel agency, Executive Resources, Inc., Manila, during a super down pour. I don't mind getting soak in the rain, I just want to know if there is a possibility that I can go with the October batch of the Marian Pilgrimage with Bro. Bo Sanchez as the Spiritual Tour Guide and Fr. Alex Balatbat as Pilgrimage Chaplain. The good lady at Beaconlights, Inc., Beckie, said that slots are limited and the trip schedule is less than a month from now. I just got the ads in the Internet, trips to Portugal, Spain, France and Italy.
When I inquired at the travel agency where they book special pilgrimages and trips to the Holy Land, Lenie welcomed me in the cool air-conditioned office. Connie, her companion was actually waiting for me for Beckie had informed them that somebody (that's me) is interested to join the group.
I was overwhelmed that they said yes, they can accommodate me. Can you beat that! However, that is just the first step. I had to submit my requirements to them immediately and of course pay the reservation fee.
To be continued the next day . . .
