Hi everyone!

We successfully made it to the sanctuary of Saint Ignatius in the heart of the unique Basque country. We are surrounded by large mountains, massive greenery, and beautiful weather -- it is great and not difficult to imagine Saint Ignatius standing here in awe and seeing God in everything surrounding us.

So far we have seen where Saint Ignatius was born and experienced his conversion and the very books that would change his life and the world for the better. We have met, shared, befriended, and slept next to people from cultures all over the world, and our time here has just begun.

We are all so blessed to have this experience and to make this pilgrimage to the heart of Christ. Please pray that we may all find God in all things, to be contemplatives in action, and to be open to all things so that we may come back to our own homes as better friends, family members, and members of our communities.

May God Bless you!

Paz y Fuerza,

Mike Prescia
