What is your favorite memory of walking the Camino?

In recent years, it has become increasingly popular for people from around the world to walk all or a part of the Camino de Santiago, or “Way of St. James,” a pilgrimage path that leads to the tomb of St. James at the Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela in northwestern Spain.

The Criterion is inviting people who have made all or part of that pilgrimage to share one memorable moment from that journey, a moment that has led them into a deeper relationship with God and a deeper appreciation of their faith.

Comments and insights about the overall experience of that journey and how it has continued to influence your life and your faith are also welcome.

Please send your submissions to John Shaughnessy by e-mail at jshaughnessy@archindy.org or by mail in care of The Criterion, 1400

N. Meridian St., Indianapolis, IN 46202. Please include your parish and a daytime phone number where you can be reached. †
