Pilgrimage to Rome: Father John Perdue, a priest of our diocese who served as Administrator here at St. Paul's during the pandemic, is completing his studies in Rome this June. To mark the occasion, he will lead a pilgrimage to Rome and invites you to consider joining him. The pilgrimage will include visits to some of Rome’s most important religious and cultural sites, including the Church of St. Peter-in-Chains, after which our Cathedral Church is named. Pending final approval from his university, the pilgrimage may also include the opportunity to attend Fr. John’s doctoral thesis defence.
