Denver Catholic is hitting the road this month!


As Archbishop James Golka heads across the pond to Rome to receive his pallium, a liturgical vestment that metropolitan archbishops wear, a group from the Archdiocese of Denver will accompany him.


We’ll pray alongside him — and for him — as he meets the Holy Father, Pope Leo XIV, for the first time. We’ll accompany our new archbishop as we visit holy sites and saints across the Eternal City. We’ll come together as one archdiocesan family, united with the universal church across language, nationality, culture and time.


And we want to bring you along with us!


Throughout the trip, from June 24 through July 1, we’ll be publishing daily updates, reflections and photos on denvercatholic.org, on our social media accounts and in special e-newsletters.


Beyond those updates, it would be an honor to pray for you, dear reader, and our archdiocesan community, while visiting these holy saints and sites. Feel free to send your prayer intentions at the link below.


To follow along:

  • Be sure to follow us on Facebook and Instagram!

  • Feel free to share your prayer intentions!
