    LIVE from the Camino I’ve lost track of time

    Dear Pilgrims, I don’t know what day it is, 10 maybe. It’s Sunday again. Last Sunday I was in A Guarda at the Hotel Monumento de San Benito. It was the Feast of St Benedict and there was a relic at Mass. Each day is long and good. Yesterday I was at the Hospederia Monasterio De Poio. Mass and...

    LIVE from the Camino On the way-days 3,4,5

    Dear Pilgrims, Day 3 was a hike, 9000 feet elevation in total, my All Trails app was a help. I’m going to work on not checking so often to make sure I’m on the path. Most people are friendly, I feel a Covid tension, but when I said good morning first, I got a response, all be it, with some...

    LIVE from the Camino Some good news about the ferry

    I inquired about crossing the border into A Guardia from Hotel San Benito and received this response: Good afternoon, The Ferry works from tomorrow after months stopped. For this reason we DO NOT know the schedule yet, but a TAXI BOAT can always cross you. There are several in the area.

    LIVE from the Camino On the way-1st time-day two

    Dear Pilgrims, Made it to Esposende. Met more pilgrims, two girls from Holland, one from Denmark. All three of them said there are 3 seminarians from the US on the way as well. It was delightful to talk and walk, weather is still heavenly, quite windy. I’m at Hostel 11, So. Nice. Really, I’m...

    Dear Pilgrims, Thank you for your well wishes, prayers and blessings. I’m at Sardines and Friends with my bag and all is well. I got a tiny bit lost finding the place but found Matriz Church of Póvoa de Varzim Just around the corner. This is a fantastic place to stay, very nice. Kitchen and...

    LIVE from the Camino On the way-1st time-day two

    Greetings and peace brothers and sisters! I landed in Lisbon via Madrid and drove to Fatima yesterday, words are useless in holy places, pictures don’t tell half the story. I really do not like being late to Mass so of course I was late to two! 🙃 I’ve spent some time in tearful gratitude, AH...

    Central and Coastal Portuguese routes

    Thank you for your responses. Saint Augustine said, “He who sings, prays twice.” I consider chanting prayerfully singing for sure. I sent a message through the contact us page and put the contact number in my phone. Sister Paula responded with kindness. If it’s God’s will, I will receive the...

    Mass on Coastal Camino Portugal 🇵🇹

    Right on Ruth! I’ll be right behind you. I’m in Fatima the night of the 5th, Porto the night of the 6th and I plan to start early out of Porto on the 7th. I get lost in my backyard and I’m not much of a planner so it will be quite the adventure.🙃 This is my first Camino and I’m giving myself...

    Mass on Coastal Camino Portugal 🇵🇹

    Hi, I leave 4th of July, American Independence Day!- With God’s help- I know God never ceases to bring His people to Him and I’ll get to celebrate Mass as I need to.
