Genoa to New York: September 1894
Manage episode 475604630 series 3298548
Welcome back, Catholic Pilgrims. So, the year is 1894 and Mother Cabrini has been in Italy for two years. I’m assuming—I hope correctly—that she left Nicaragua and traveled back to Italy, where she has been the past two years.
The motherhouse for St. Francis Cabrini’s order is in Rome, so I imagine that is where she has been. Again, I’m going to assume, as we don’t have any letters between arriving in Nicaragua in November of 1891 and now being in Italy for two years.
Either way, Mother Cabrini is leaving from the port of Genoa, Italy and she is headed back to New York. You can tell that she is sad to leave, but she’s a missionary and missionaries must carry on.
Let’s hear about the start of this voyage by turning to page 83.
