Your Benefits

  • You are fully immersed in a foreign culture that is at the same time familiar because it is Christian, and you come to appreciate the astonishing universality of the Catholic Church.

  • You will meet members of religious orders and laypeople who will inspire you.

  • The way you see others and the world will change—and that will change you.

  • You will discover other rituals and ways of praying and living out your faith, and your own faith will be transformed.

  • Amid living conditions that can sometimes be difficult, you’ll refocus on what really matters.
