From Tourist to Pilgrim - Ep. 2: Saint Mary Major

This Basilica, the oldest Marian Church in the West, is piled high with beauty and treasures. Built in 432, St. Mary Major has long been the Christmas church, Rome's Bethlehem, especially during the long years when pilgrims were unable to journey to the Holy Land. "From Tourist to Pilgrim" is a podcast by Liz Lev, with original music by Mara Miceli and Umberto D'Auria, editing and sound design by Mara Miceli, and directed by Johana Bronkova.
