Love it! I visited Assisi about 5 years ago, and I was really expecting something horribly commercial and synthetic.

When I went into the Basilica to see the Portiuncula, I was completely blown away. It’s an incredibly beautiful site, this little chapel in the midst of a vast church, and there were pilgrims weeping all around me. They hear confessions non-stop, in many languages, and judging by the lines, I thought that this was going to be a life-transforming experience for many.
