SkyLink Holidays was the natural corollary to the SkyLink
Group of Companies expansion. The acquisition of TourCan Vacations,
a tour operator with some 20 years of experience in the market
place, SkyLink brought that experience to fruit by the creation
of SkyLink Holidays a tour operator designed to serve both
the consumer and the trade on the one hand by providing hotel
packages, air booking and hotel booking engines and on the
other hand put more focus on specialized tours. Because of
the experience gained during the last few years SkyLink Holidays
is reinventing itself to provide a better service to its clients,
rebuilding its website to make easier the search for travel
solutions and by venturing into Faith based programs such
as Go Israel USA and Christian World Tours USA.

| Christian World Tours USA is the official representative of
Opera Romana Pellegrinaggi (ORP) a Vatican a travel activity
of the Vicariate of Rome, that seeks to evangelize, in part,
through the ministry of pilgrimage, as well as through cultural
and formative initiatives. ORP has just opened an information
facility in St. Peter’s Square offering resources to pilgrims
who seek help for their journeys through Europe. It issues the
"testimonium" -- a certificate of the authenticity
of a pilgrimage -- and provides a reception site for travelers.

|
| At the inauguration of this Center Father Caesar Atuire, director
general of the Opera Romana Pellegrinaggi, summarized the purpose
in words that can be directly applied to the function of Christian
World Tours in the USA: "The reception center we have opened
today demonstrates the Church's desire to collaborate with all
those private initiatives and institutions that foster the promotion
of culture and the human person, following these ancient routes
that have woven Europe's history and contributed to shape its
identity." |
|
| As exclusive carriers of that mission statement in the USA
we offer to the American travelers inspired by their Faith an
easy way to prepare their pilgrimage to the Holy See or to any
of the holy sites of Europe and Israel. |
|
| The tours included in this website attempt to give the traveler
the best possible combination of Faith, comfort and affordability
with a stamp of authenticity that cannot be provided by anyone
else. |
|
| The letter sent by Father Atuire to all the American Catholic
institutions summarizes with clarity and elegance the spirit
behind our effort: |
