We suggest three itineraries, as well as foreign tours and cruises in the footsteps of the Apostle:
1. Pauline itinerary in the city of Rome
Throughout the city of Rome there are numerous traces of St Paul. We propose two, four or six day tours to discover:
- the Pauline places
- a presentation of his letters
- the ecumenical communities of the world
In six of the places on this itinerary through the city of Rome you will discover:
°to understand his message better
°to get to know the first communities of that era
°to better appreciate the challenges facing the early Church
°a place where he walked
°a church where he is represented
°a place to which he is spiritually connected
°a community which is living in one of the cities where St Paul travelled on his journeys
°a way of getting to know better our Christian brothers and sisters
You can follow this itinerary either on foot or by bus.
On our internet site www.annopaolino.org you will find a map of Rome marked with all the places that you can visit with the ‘Christian Rome’ bus tours run by the Opera Romana Pellegrinaggi.
