Camino Companions are back again in the Pilgrims Office (Room 6 on the first floor). Do call in for a tea/coffee and enjoy some camino conversation with other pilgrims or come along to one of the group sharing sessions at 10.00 am or 2.30 pm. If you would like a personal conversation,email us at caminocompanions@gmail.com

I really enjoyed my Camino conversation. It was a wonderful way to articulate my experience. Thank you Katharine

I've not heard of Camino Companions until now, so have missed out on the opportunity to participate in the past. Where is this being advertised in addition to Ivar's forum?

Sister Katharine herself wrote it .
I think the only other way is there website.

Hmmm checked the website but not finding anything related to the Camino. Unless I've gone blind...also a reasonable possibility!! So...just a quick synopsis? Gracias!

I called in on this Camino Companions welcome meeting upstairs at the Pilgrim Office in August - it was absolutely amazing. It was just me and a lovely nun and nice cups of tea. I stayed an hour and a half, she was so great, we had the best chat and I left feeling as light as air. I couldn't believe more people don't take advantage of it.

There are banners around in the Pilgrim Office for the various welcome services - I think English, German, Dutch, French and South American if I remember rightly, with the hours they work. But many people whizz out of the pilgrim office as soon as they have that piece of paper in their hands.

There is a resource on here which I have updated with the banner (also below).
