    Eastern Orthodox on the Camino Frances?

    Hi Father Moses. Send my regards to Fr. Maximos! I used to live with Fr. Maximos when I was a Dominican. Yes very surprising that, especially regarding those under the Moscow Patriarchate. Though i remember John Brierly stating there was once a historic route from Russia that connected in...

    A guide book from a Christian Perspective ?

    I know this is a rather older thread but I would wanna suggest these to to begin with. Both come from the United Kingdom. And they are excellent. Both do not take an extraordinary amount of time to read. And they are devoid of more new age type of memoirs such as Shirley MacLaine's book. These...

    Pilgrim passport full

    I only did the last 100 on the Frances and I filled two credenciales. I loved doing it. I calculated that if I only got two stamps per day I wouldn't even fill half of the passport. It wouldn't look "right" to me. So on day one I got it stamped as many times as I could manage. By the time I...

    Which pilgrim passport/credencial has the nicest design?

    Wow, I thought many of the same things. I only did the last 100 of the Frances this year. I too noticed all the variety. I actually (with lots of effort) filled two whole credenciales. I actually like the unique design of the credencial issued by the Confraternity based in Madrid. They will...
