Breathe life and newness
"I am a Catholic leader who is always seeking to provide others with life giving and formative opportunities for growth and intimacy with Jesus and his Church. I know that I also need these gifts to remain in relationship with God and to keep growing myself. That's why I chose to retreat away with the Truth and Beauty Project in February 2023. They are a trusted organization who has your good in mind and is well equipped to work in collaboration with the Holy Spirit to breathe life and newness into your life through all the senses and to extend the depth and richness that Rome and Holy Mother Church has to offer."
Amanda Zurface, JCL

Sharing the joy of following Truth and Beauty
When I think of John and Ashley Noronha, I think of the word share! They live out hospitality and they share their knowledge of Rome and their zeal for bringing Christ’s light to the world. It was a gift to take part in the Truth & Beauty Project. It was uplifting to sit at table with fellows, guest speakers and John and Ashley. We learned, probed and conversed about digital media and life, all rooted in our shared love for Jesus Christ. The Noronhas opened up a world of sacred art with our visits to the sites and churches and their knowledgeable commentary. In turn, I have been able to bring a little bit of the eternal city back to New Jersey to university students. John and Ashley have been generous in presenting to one of my classes each spring semester, even at midnight Rome time! They have gifts in showing today’s college students and young adults that there is much joy in following “truth and beauty”. Now that’s sharing, for sure!
