The Devout Among Us

I am not a Catholic but I am religious, and have derived much comfort from our visits to the cathedrals. I always listen to the historical information but sometimes I think it is more personally valuable to me if I have a chance to pray.

I think there are several of us that share this sentiment. The first cathedral we visited, only two of us sat down to pray. By the end of the trip, almost all of us have bowed our heads and closed our eyes in our moment of solitary prayer and reflection. Having traveled so far from home, surely there is comfort in the knowledge that there is One who is with you wherever you go.
