Phillipi







Greetings from Greece,



Today, we travel to the ancient city of Phillipi...one of the first cities that St. Paul preached to in Greece. It was here that he baptized Lydia, the first European Christian. In the picture you see, we had Mass. The small round table to the right is where the altar was. A great experience.



The other two pictures concern Paul & Silas. The one with the steps is where Paul & Silas were flogged in front of the community/town square of Phillipi. The other one is the prison in which they were held.



Tomorrow, after Mass, we are off to Kalambaka and the Meteora Monasteries [monasteries, litterly perched on the top of a moutain]....can't wait!



Hope everyone has had a good Sunday...and that the Colts will win!



Peace,



Fr. Steve
