About the Event
This Holy Week, and to inaugurate our virtual walks project, we are offering FREE virtual tours of the Vatican. Usually, Holy Week is the best week to visit the Vatican, and to get a true sense of what it's all about. Now, you can make that journey from the comfort of your home. You can enrich your experience of Holy Week or Passover, or just home quarantine!, with a decades worth of insights I have gleaned from leading pilgrims and patrons through the beauitful & compelling drama of the Sistine Chapel.
On this visit, we will go more in-depth on how the Sistine Chapel immerses everyone in the drama of salvation history. And we will make sure to spend a good amount of time on Michelangelo's famous Last Judgement. How can you see this masterpiece with new eyes on Holy Saturday? How does the drama of this visual invite us to 'Dare to Hope that All Mankind Will Be Saved?'
All the virtual walks will take place online, of course. To participate you will need a computer with a good (fast) internet connection, and a phone or an iPad with WhatsApp installed and working.
Once you register, all the log-in details will be sent to you via email. You will also receive a set of 'class notes' after the tour, so that you can full enjoy the seminar and learning experience. We will also have a live 'tour assistant' on hand to help you throughout the process !
As a courtesy, if you plan to no longer participate in the virtual tour, we ask you to please provide us with a cancellation notice at least 2 hours before the event.
