  • Santuario del Miracolo Eucaristico, Lanciano, Italy
    The town of Lanciano is above all a cradle of art for the presence of numerous monuments, starting from the sanctuary of the Eucharistic Miracle which preserves the testimony of the oldest Eucharistic miracle of the Catholic world. Around the year 700, in the ancient church of San Legonziano, a Basilian monk expressed doubts about the presence of Christ in the Eucharist. During mass, the consecrated host and wine really turned into flesh and blood. The relics are kept in a monstrance that is admired by thousands of faithful.

  • Santuario del Volto Santo, Manoppello, Italy
    Inside the Shrine of Manoppello is enclosed, in a case, what is recognized as the true Face of Jesus Christ. A legend tells that in 1506 a pilgrim presented himself to the physicist Giacomo Antonio Leonelli and gave him the precious gift. The veil remained in the Leonelli house until 1608, then was stolen by a soldier of fortune and sold to Donatantonio De Fabritiis and from these donated to the Capuchin Father Clemente from Castelvecchio From 1646 the Holy Face is exposed to the veneration of the people. It is a soft veil, the warp and the weft are intertwined in the form of a normal weaving. The cloth measures 17 x 24 cm and shows the image of a male face with long hair and a beard divided into bands; it is the only case in the world where the image is identically visible on both sides. No residues or pigments of color can be found. At the end of the seventies the Trappist nun Blandina Paschalis Schloemer, an expert iconographer, discovered that the Face of the Shroud of Turin and that of Manoppello

This tour was so special to us. Four of us travelled together and this was the best day on our 15 day trip. Bianca and Roberto took such good care of us. We love them like friends. Thank you! From Gary and Dana Chris and Tina.

This was a near 12-hour return journey. The 2 drivers ensured the long drive was undertaken safely. Our guide Rossana exercised flexibility to accommodate my less mobile elderly sister. As requested, she even arranged a private Mass for my group at Lanciano although, for convenience, we joined a group from Australia for Mass instead. At Manopello, she arranged for Friar Fr. Abel to recount the history of the Holy Face and explain its deeper meaning to us. This trip is indeed spiritually uplifting.

El milagro eucaristico de Lanciano es uno de los lugares que el misticismo y espiritualidad que desafian las leyes fisicas se conjugan. El ver ese trozo de carne y sangre disecada te acerca más a Dios. Aqui no encontrarás atractivos arquitectonicos, pero si mucha fe. Creo que despues de la pandemia, sera un punto donde muchas personas iran para renovar su fe, dar gracias y hallar consuelo. Lo recomiendo totalmente
