6. Eat lots of Gelato in Italy
7. Travel by Boat, Train, Bus, Plane, and Foot
8. Explore Castles and Hike Mountains
9. Make Great Friends
Who are we looking for? On our youth pilgrimages, we want adventurous spirits who are excited to be alive, people who can adapt to adverse situations with grace, souls who can suffer a 13 mile walk in 100 degree heat... spend the night on the ground with 2,000,000 young God seekers... and walk back the next day in the same heat... all with sheer joy at the opportunity to see the Holy Father, in short, those who are forever young (this has nothing to do with age). We are looking for persons who are seeking God, have a desire to pray, love the Church, and have an insatiable thirst for the one, the true, the good and the beautiful. Note: You will not be required to walk 13 miles if you can't. We have taken 84 year old priests who could hardly walk. We do everything we can to accommodate everyone. The point is that everyone has the desire to sacrifice and bring joy to the group.
