It’s always sad to disembark from the ship, but we had the exciting city of Corinth ahead of us. Paul lived in Corinth for 18 months and wrote two very impassioned epistles to them. Seems he loved the Corinthian church more than the others.

An easy process getting off the ship and we headed to Corinth. We stopped first at the canal that was dug through the isthmus dividing Achaia from mainland of Greece. Amazing site! From there to the archaeological ruins of Corinth. We had Mass on a rock outdoors in front of the judgment seat (Bema) and a short tour of all the site.

I took everyone down to my favorite part of Corinth missed by other groups, the Erastus Stone which confirms the truth of Scripture. Then back to the canal for a lunch together before celebrating the anticipatory Sunday Mass at the Cathedral of St. Dionysius in Athens. Farewell dinner in the hotel and to bed early.
