Fatima was an extraordinary experience for me. As a Buddhist and a convert to various Christian denominations, I had never felt such a profound sense of unity and spirituality as I did when praying rosaries alongside ten thousand Catholics.
Armando, our exceptional tour guide, shared a similar traditional mindset, and the two nuns were truly remarkable.
- The location was great, with a clean and decent hotel just a few feet away from the shrine and the chapel.
- Great hotel location in Braga at Sao Paolo Hotel
The daily TLM mass with Canon Ueda was excellent, and the nuns were truly inspiring.
It was also wonderful to travel with the same kind-hearted pilgrims from our previous trip to Our Lady of Guadalupe.
- The food was delicious, and we thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Bom Jesu. We wish we had extended our stay there.
The weather was perfect, and the timing was ideal for our visit. Although Lourdes was not included in our itinerary, I fulfilled my own desire with a side trip there.
Caroline, Thank you for everything you did for us and for arranging our Toulouse flight. God bless you. More prayers for your mom and family.
