El Camino de Santiago Pilgrimage presentation

Join me after Mass on Tuesday, January 30, for a talk about El Camino de Santiago (The Way of St. James), a network of pilgrims' ways or pilgrimages leading to the shrine of the apostle James in the cathedral of Santiago de Compostela in Galicia in northwestern Spain, where traditionholds that the remains of the apostle are buried.

I will touch on the history of The Camino and highlight my preparations for the pilgrimage, from the calling to the training that led to an adventure of a lifetime that I couldn’t have planned nor dreamt of having.

I'll also provide resources and local connections that helped me along my way and possibly inspire you on your way.

This pilgrimage for me was a walk with God, expanding my trust and faith. Only by the grace of God was I able to make this journey and continue to grow and learn from this experience.  This experience continues to be one of the most life-changing events in my life, and I would love to share my faith and love for God with you.  

Buen Camino.
