A mother and son travel by train throughout Europe visiting the most sacred shrines. The son's aunt joins them on this pilgrimage. This book shows how they got along, the obstacles they encountered, and the inspiration they drew on from such places as Loreto, Osimo, Assisi, and others. They visited the resting places of their heroes namely Blessed Carlos Acutis, Blessed Anne Catherine Emmerich, and Saint Joseph Cupertino. They experienced The Passion Play in Oberammergau. Despite a flood, fatigue and a constant battle making train connections, the pilgrim stumbled on three brass squares that left them speechless. Amidst this, was a reunion of friends that transcends any religion. This is a very human, good read.
