Following breakfast at the hotel, we will visit the Loretto Chapel with the Miraculous Stairway in Santa Fe. The Loretto Chapel in Santa Fe is a former Roman Catholic church that is now used as a museum. It is known for its unusual helix-shaped spiral staircase (the "Miraculous Stair"). The Sisters of Loretto credited St. Joseph with its construction. It has been the subject of legend, and the circumstances surrounding its construction and its builder were considered miraculous by the Sisters of Loretto. We will proceed to Chimayo City, for our visit to El Santuario De Chimayo, which is well known for its "Holy Dirt". It is here that we will celebrate Mass and pray beside the "The Shrine of Lord of Esquipulas" and the sand hole. Next, we will see the Our Lady of La Vang statue located in the chapel. Return to Santa Fe for dinner and overnight.
