Amberly Boerschinger writes about keeping Christ at the center of summer vacations

Amberly Boerschinger suggests several ways families can integrate faith into summer travel, such as selecting patron saints for specific trip activities. While St. Christopher is the traditional patron for travelers, Boerschinger notes that families can choose saints based on their specific experiences. For example, she suggests praying to St. Jude when facing lost baggage or missed flights.

Families can also incorporate pilgrimage elements into their vacations by seeking out religious sites along their route. Boerschinger mentions that her daughter, Clara, visits a church dedicated to Blessed Stanley Rother in Oklahoma City, where the grounds serve as a location for prayer walks.
