A great symbol for Lent: A beautiful mosaic undergoing restoration. Lent is a time for us to restore our relationship with God. #stationchurch #santamariaindomnica #lent #catholic #pilgrimage #rome #restoration #art

This Lent I've been posting pictures of the beautiful art found in the station Churches. Today I offer this photo of the migrant camp on the steps of Dodici Apostoli. A reminder not only to encounter God in the beauty of art, but also in the poor and marginalized. #stationchurch #dodiciapostoli #lent #catholic #pilgrimage #poverty #rome
