Get Thee to a Pilgrimage!!



Today is the day. I am leaving my house in about 15 minutes to go to the train station and on to Spain! This blog will be updated only rarely during the pilgrimage, but I hope to post photos and full details here when I get back to the United States.

To everybody who sent their prayers, thank you for allowing me to carry them with me. For those of you who sent prayers for me, thank you for your thoughtful and incredibly moving words. I haven't been able to write each of you individually, but I have loved every prayer that each of you has sent.

If you are interested in following along my journey, I will try to do brief little "I am here" updates, and this can be the first one.

Today, I take the train from Brno, Czech Republic to Bratislava, Slovakia. From Slovakia, I am flying to Barcelona, Spain, where I will have a few hours before I take a night bus to Irun. I will start the walk in Irun and plan to sleep my first night in San Sebastian/Donastia and then on to Zargauz.

I have all of my friends and loved ones in my thoughts. I love all of you, and thank you for everything you have all done for me in preparation for this journey, and throughout the journey of my life.

See you on the flip side!
