Today I took the little man to The Shrine of Christ's Passion in St. John, Indiana. It is a field trip that I took my students on a couple of years ago. I have wanted to return and enjoy it on my own for some time. Now that summer is almost over, I took the opportunity to get there. My mom had never been, so she came as well. It was a hot and humid day, but it is very peaceful and pretty to go see. If anyone is in the Midwest, it is a journey worth taking.
One of the main reasons I wanted to go to the shrine is because of the gift shop as well. They have some amazing things there. When I was there, I found this plaque.
I should have bought it, but I didn't have the money at the time. They didn't have it this time around. The only place I can find it is in St. Louis, MO, but that is a long drive from Chicago. I will eventually order it, but this weekend is going to be expensive since I am going to Irish Fest in Milwaukee. That is another event for another blog.
