A Letter from William Kenney, President of Travelbuilders International

Dear Friend,


This year Father Ralph wishes to return to the beautiful country of "Mexico". We have
accompanied him to Mexico on two other occasions’ and experienced marvelous adventures and a deep religious experience.


Father Ralph will celebrate a private Holy Mass, for the group, each day followed by a brief
teaching and healing session. His Masses will be celebrated in some of the oldest and historical
Basilicas, Cathedrals, and Churches in the world including the magnificent shrine of "Our Lady
of Guadalupe”. Mexico is where the catholic faith first took hold in the new (westem) world.


We will visit and worship in the beautiful cathedrals in the colonial Mexican towns of
Guadalajara, San Miguel de Allende, and the capital city of Mexico City. In Mexico City we will
spend the entire day at the shrine of "Our Lady of Guadalupe” whereSaint Juan Diego’s tilma is
displayed over the main alter encased in indestructible glass. The image of "Our Lady" is
miraculously embedded in the ancient cloth of St. Juan’s cloak.


When some Americans think of Mexico their thoughts center on all of the bad news involving
this country. They think of the boarder situation and the Mexican’s that cross the boarder
illegally. But! In many ways, this is not an accurate impression. Mexico is a nation of one
hrmdred four million people. Mexico City is the largest city in the world with more than eleven
million people living in it. It has been my experience and I have been there more than eleven
times, that Mexico is a beautiful country with warm and generous people and wonderful sites to
see and very good food and wine to enjoy. I first went to Mexico in 1979, when I arranged a
trade mission for the State of Connecticut, and visited the shrine of Guadalupe. I was so
impressed with the shrine, and felt such a great sense of peace and tranquility, that I prayed to
"Our Lady" that she would enable me to bring people to the shrine on pilgrimage. Since that
time and prayer, I have led more than seven hundred (700) people to this exquisite shrine.


Participation in this trip is limited. We only have forty-four spaces available due to this period
being high season in Mexico. The weather will be mild and the temperature during the day in the
70’s and in the evenings in the 60’s. The US dollar is strong and a very good value in Mexico
and not weak as it is against the Euro in Europe. A good dinner in Mexico will cost
approximately $15.00. The hotels that we are using are first class, historic, picturesque, and . aq
beautiful.


If you are interested in joining Father Ralph, Joani and Me on this unique joumey, we must have
your $200.00 deposit very quickly since we have only a short time until the departure date of
August 4, 2008 to conclude the final arrangements. If you want to purchase your own airline
tickets or leave from an airport other than Boston or Newark let us know and we will help you
arrange your flights to Mexico. The price reduction will be $400.00 off the brochure price.
