	World Youth Day Adventure Pilgrimage for the brave of heart and seeking soul For two weeks, pilgrims from St. Francis journey through Italy and Germany to participate in the 2005 World Youth Day in Cologne, Germany. Take a look at our pictures and a few 'stats' from the trip! 24 pilgrims 13 days of travel 5 major basilicas in two countries 4 flights 13 kilometers hiked to and from the overnight vigil 1.2 million people at a Papal sleep-over 42 degrees as the low overnight, while we were outside 1 catechesis session with Cardinal Arinze 8 host families Countless memories Priceless experience


	We offer our gratitude to our parish community for the support and assistance given to make the pilgrimage possible. The entire St. Francis parish was in our prayers as we journeyed through Italy & Germany. Most especially we offered our prayers while at Saint Francis Basilica in Assisi, Italy.
