Pisa

We arrived in Pisa today for a three day stay from which we will visit Florence and Assisi.  Here is the famous leaning tower which quite dramatically leans at a 60 degree angle. A net has been erected around the base to catch the tourists that occasionally fall from the top.  It is really hard to keep your balance!

  1. If you are still taking Mass intentions to be placed on the altar.... For my father.

    I am a former parishioner and teacher in St. Louis, MO. We had the pleasure of having Fr. Voigt as a mission week priest 3 or 4 years ago. Just this past Sunday my husband and I started listening to the taped talks. We have not heard if Fr. Voigt was transferred and was wondering how he was doing. Seems like he is doing quite well. I will keep your pilgrimage in my prayers.

    God Bless,

    Former Miss Schepers

  2. Hi Mr. and Mrs. Ferrelli! This is Liz Hatty. Those pictures are so cool. Did you see anyone fall off? Did you drop a penny on someone's head from the top? Ha, ha, just kidding. Your daughter has been pretty good. She led the choir today, and she did a good job. It sounded nice. I hope you are having a fun (and holy) time. Please say a prayer for me.
