Everyone wanted the schedule of the further visit of Our Lady of Częstochowa to Italy to proceed as planned, without disruptions. The friendly family of an employee of the Sanctuary of the Holy House in Loreto drove their own car all the way to Varese near Milan. They did this well in advance to ensure that there would be no surprises.

As the international coordinator of the pilgrimage “From Ocean to Ocean” I arrived to the sanctuary in Varese, a day before the planned arrival of the Icon of Our Lady of Częstochowa, traveling through the world “From Ocean to Ocean”. I wanted to help the local organizers in receiving and welcoming Our Lady and tell them how Our Lady of Częstochowa was received in other countries.
I met with Vittoria Criscolo – who was the coordinator for the Italian pro-life movements and at the same time a great translator (I don’t know Italian) and with Mons. Eros Monti, responsible for the Sanctuary of the Sacro Monte in Varese. This conversation was very fruitful. Everything was ready!

Today, June 10 at 1:45 p.m. after 10 days of customs blockade, we received news that the Icon had finally arrived at the sanctuary in Varese near Milan. For 10 days She had been held in an Italian customs chamber on the border of the European Union. More questions were asked, the answers to which were contained in the documents attached to the Icon. Finally, on June 9, a fee of 116.6 euros was charged for each box, regardless of what was inside. The larger one contained the Icon, the smaller one the equipment to place Her in the feretron.
