Our first destination was Rome, the heart of the Catholic Church. There, surrounded by centuries of faith, we prayerfully walked through all four Holy Doors. Each door marked a sacred passage—an invitation to conversion, mercy, and renewal. As pilgrims of hope, we crossed those thresholds carrying our intentions, our loved ones, and our personal struggles, trusting that God would meet us with grace. In those moments, we felt profoundly united with the universal Church and with countless pilgrims who had walked these paths before us.
aries, shared reflections, and joyful conversations strengthened our bond. Long bus rides became opportunities for prayer and storytelling; meals became moments of fellowship and gratitude. Under the gentle guidance of Mgr. Peter Bui, we were constantly reminded that this pilgrimage was not about the distance traveled, but about hearts transformed.
