Join Angela Sealana and Debbie Garza – a pilgrimage group leader for Pilgrim Center of Hope – as they spiritually travel Venice, Italy, and the Basilica of St. Mark. The Basilica today is really considered to be a combination of Roman, Byzantine, and Venetian culture. It is built in the shape of a Greek cross. Angela and Debbie also speak about St. Mark the Evangelist whose feast day is April 25th. During this program:
- Learn about St. Mark the Evangelist. Who was he?
- Discover the religious and historical significance of a city like Venice having a Patron Saint, especially in those times.
- Take a dive into the various elements of the holy site.
