Pilgrimage to Italy!
Columbus Catholic High School invites our students, parents, and staff to experience the most historic and religious sites of central Italy during our pilgrimage in Spring Break of 2026.
On the trip we will have personalized tours of sites like St. Peter’s Basilica, the Sistine Chapel, the Vatican Museum, St. Mary Major, St. John Lateran, the Roman Colosseum, Spanish Steps, the city of Florence, the Florence Cathedral, Michelangelo’s Statue of David, Basilica of Assisi, LaVerna, Castel Gandolfo, and the sites of St. Francis, St. Clare, and St. Carlos Acutis, and much more.
The trip also includes daily Mass at significant and ancient pilgrimage sites like the Basilica in Assisi, St. Paul Outside the Walls Basilica in Rome, and the St. Michael’s Shrine Grotto. To top it all off, we will get to see and hear the pope when we attend the papal audience in the Vatican.
