Yesterday (on Sunday), I took my Mom to the Mother Cabrini Shrine in Golden, Colorado. Mother Cabrini was the first American saint, born in Italy, and you can learn about her shrine at http://www.den-cabrini-shrine.org/. It was a wonderful place, and although my family is not Catholic (we are Orthodox), we really enjoyed it. The 22-ft statue of Jesus Christ is called the Sacred Heart, and you need to climb a few hundred stairs to get there.
