The Catholic News Agency reports that Bishop Carlos Lopez Hernandez of Salamanca in Spain has begun a five-day pilgrimage on foot from Salamanca to Santiago where they will meet up with about 120 youths from other dioceses in Spain. They hope to arrive at the tomb of St. James on July 18th at noon. They will conclude their pilgrimage with a satellite hookup to follow the closing Mass at WYD in Sydney, celebrated by Pope Benedict XVI, in solidarity with the young people in Australia.
