ROME EXPERIENCE

The MSSP Oratory Youth community, in collaboration with YTC, is embarking on a pilgrimage to
Rome in September 2025, embracing Pope Francis’ call to become “Pilgrims of Hope.”
Led by Fr Giovann Tabone, MSSP, this journey is more than just a visit to sacred sites—it is an invitation to
renewal, reconciliation, and unity through spiritual reflection and action.

Rooted in the MOY charism, the pilgrimage will weave together
prayer, reflection, and community-building, allowing participants to experience faith in a deeper and more
transformative way. In the spirit of true pilgrimage, we will not simply see but truly encounter
the places we visit, drawing from their rich spiritual heritage to inspire our own journey of faith.

As Pope Francis reminds us:

“Do not be like superficial sightseers, blind to the beauty around you, never discovering the meaning of the roads you take,
interested only in a few fleeting moments to capture in a selfie. Tourists do this. Pilgrims, on the other hand, immerse themselves
fully in the places they encounter, listen to the message they communicate, and make them a part of their quest for happiness
and fulfillment.”
— Pope Francis, Message to Youths (2024)

 
Join us as we walk this path together, embracing hope, deepening our faith, and becoming bearers of light in the world.
