Pilgrimage for the Year of St Paul

On June 28, 2008, Pope Benedict declared this year until June 29, 2009 (Feast of Sts Peter and Paul) to be the Year of St Paul, remembering the year of Paul's birth. Fr. Bill Burton OFM (www.biblicist.net) and I will lead a group of pilgrims in the Footsteps of St Paul, in Turkey and Greece. We will visit Ephesus, Izmir, Pergamum, Canakkale, Kavala, Phillippi, Thessaloniki, Monastery of Meteroa, Kalambaka, Athens, Corinth, Istanbul. Fr. Bill is a renowned Scripture scholar and teacher, a preacher on all things Biblical. His seven years in Rome earned him a high degree in Biblical Studies, not to forget his Irish wit and humor.
