This gorgeous girl is a grace to have along. Not only is she good at Spanish, a force to be reckoned with generally, supportive, beautiful, and graceful…she’s also an expert on chocolate chip cookies. Such things are vital on excursions. This pilgrim goes to school with some of the kidz in the group. We knewContinueContinue reading “July 20–Pray for Car-lay”

Once I went to a dance and the friend I was with, Sam, said, “Do you see that guy over there? He’s becoming Catholic.” So the friend introduced us and I was like, “HI. I LOVE BEING CATHOLIC. DO YOU WANT TO GO ON A NEW YEAR’S RETREAT WITH ME? There will be dancing.” AndContinueContinue reading “July 19–Prayers for my son, Matt”

I think you were technically supposed to pray for Fr. Simon today. But now it’s BONUS DAY! Two pilgrims for the price of one! Please pray for MARCUS! This guy is actually walking the full 800 km. Whew! He joins us from Canada. Oh, and he’s a seminarian (sorry, ladies) so he could use allContinueContinue reading “July 18–Pray for Marcus. And Fr. Simon.”

MY MOM IS JUST LIKE, “TELL THEM TO PRAY FOR MY FEET.” So, yeah. Straight from her mouth. Pray for the feet of this woman who has adventured across the Carribean, Europe, Asia, Australia and America. The woman who birthed five kiddos, homeschooled them all, and is now making her way to Santiago. Woo hoo!!

One day I got a phone call on my work line from a man I’d never met before. “Hi,” he said, “I heard you’re walking the Camino de Santiago. I want to join you.” It was bizarre. The conversation that followed was probably awkward for both of us as I tried to ask important butContinueContinue reading “July 16- Prayers for Bob”

This one joins us. She’s a complete treasure. Like, holiest one I know, for real. In the words of my sister, “She probably sees visions of Jesus and Mary, but she just hasn’t told anyone yet because she’s super humble.” We’re so glad to have her along! Praise and bless God for all of HisContinueContinue reading “July 15–Prayers for the lovely M.”

Yep, this girl is along for the ride. Leetle baby Julia who would tell me, “The Camino is calling me! I hear it!” And so it was. The Camino has called us all. I called Julia tonight (I’m writing these the night before we leave, btw). I said, “TELL ME EVERYTHING YOU ARE BRINGING SOContinueContinue reading “July 14–Prayers for Baby Julia-Ghoulia”

I met this guy several years ago. My oldest brother volunteered with an order of priests, as did this guy. At the end of the year they were going to have a mission to a large city–New York, maybe? But, alas, swine flu fear grasped the country and flights were cancelled. My brother recommended ourContinueContinue reading “July 13–Prayers being collected for our friend Jesus”
