Together On a Journey of Hope

Day 6: The Mosaic of Our Faith

Diocese of Greensburg Season 1 Episode 6

We visit some of the most significant papal basilicas, including St. Paul Outside the Walls, St. Mary Major, and St. Peter's, to reflect on the deep meaning of the Holy Doors, the relics, and the rich history of the Catholic Church.

In this podcast, we explore:

  • The beauty of St. Paul Outside the Walls and the universality of the Church.
  • The unique charisms of the four papal basilicas and their special altars, including the relics of St. Paul, St. John the Baptist, and the Manger of Christ.
  • An insightful look into the intricate art of Vatican mosaic work and its historical significance.
  • The powerful symbolism of the Paschal Candlestick, connecting us to the triumph of Christ's resurrection.
  • Our pilgrimage experience at St. Mary Major, including private moments of prayer and reflection.
  • The profound connection between the Incarnation, the Cross, and the Eucharist.
  • The deep spiritual significance of the Marian icon at St. Mary Major and its importance to the city of Rome.

Join us as we walk in the footsteps of saints and draw closer to the heart of our faith. Whether you're a pilgrim or a viewer seeking inspiration, this journey offers a beautiful reminder of the sacredness of life, faith, and community.
