Dear All,
My name is Tim. I hail from the Midwest (U.S.) and am beginning my Camino from Astorga in just three days. I realize it's "cheating", but I'm only able to get two weeks off from work for the pilgrimage. I'm open to however God wants to use this to draw me closer to Him. I'm filled with both trepidation and excitement. While I've prepared emotionally, spiritually, and materially, I was unable to adequately prepare physically. Truly, how can you prepare to walk 13 miles a day when you have a life to live? My backpack and supplies are 15 lbs.
I'd appreciate any prayers that any of you fellow pilgrims, or readers, could offer up on my behalf. I've never done anything like this before in my life. I'm not in the best shape, but am confident that the pilgrimage will draw me closer to Christ.
Thanks,
Tim
