      I recently had the pleasure of going on a pilgrimage with JMJ Tours and Fr. Christopher Pollard to Florence and Tuscany and I must say it was absolutely incredible experience. From start to finish, every aspect of the tour exceeded my expectations. First and foremost, the itinerary was well-planned and perfectly balanced. Fr. Pollard's knowledge and passion for the spiritual aspects of the journey added a deeper dimension to our pilgrimage. We visited iconic landmarks such as the Florence Cathedrals, the Uffizi Gallery, and the Ponte Vecchio, immersing ourselves in the rich history and art of the city. The Knowledgeable tour guides provided fascinating insights and anecdotes that brought these places to life. The landscapes of Tuscany were nothing short of picturesque. Ravenna, with its ancient mosaics and Byzantine treasures, transported us to a bygone era. The intricate details and vibrant colors of the mosaics left us in awe, serving as a testament to the spiritual devotion of their creators. And of course, the visit to the local winery was an unforgettable highlights. The opportunity to savor the diverse varieties and appreciate the artistry behind each bottle was a true pleasure. Another highlight of our pilgrimage was visiting Bologna and attending the Mass celebrated at the tomb of St. Dominic. It was a truly moving experience to be in the presence of such a revered saint and participate in the Eucharistic celebration in this sacred space. Fr. Pollard's heartfelt homily reminded us of St. Dominic devotion to preaching the Gospel and inspired us to carry on his mission in our own lives. Throughout the pilgrimage, Fr. Pollard's spiritual direction and guidance were invaluable. His profound knowledge of the Catholic faith and his ability to connect the historical and cultural aspects of the journey with our personal spiritual growth was truly inspiring. His daily reflections, prayerful guidance, and celebration of Mass brought us close to God and enriched our faith in ways we could not have imagined. I cannot recommend JMJ Tours highly enough. This pilgrimage to Tuscany was not just a trip, but a life-changing experience. Whether you are seeking a deeper connection with your faith, a greater appreciation for art and history, or simply a transformative journey, JMJ Tours will guide you every step of the way. It is an experience that will stay with you long after the pilgrimage ends.

      My husband and I recently went on the Heart of Italy Pilgrimage with Father Gould. It was a thought provoking and outstanding journey both spiritually, physically and emotionally. Dan Callahan was an excellent leader and always made certain all pilgrims were safe, happy, well fed and full of adventures. Dan offered keen leadership, knowledge, and friendship throughout the journey. We returned still processing the multitude of attractions we were able to witness. Our heartfelt gratitude to JMJ tours, Dan Callahan, Father Gould and Antonetta for a wonderful time in Italy. The memories will be indelible for years to come and our stories will inspire our grandchildren to be better stewards of our Catholic Faith. Simply marvelous and inherently transient in experience. Take a trip with JMJ now, do not wait!
