A journey of healing: Unlikely companions cross the Camino, traveling from brokenness to brotherhood

Mark Peredo knew he had to do something drastic. He had just returned from a journey that many people consider the trip of a lifetime—a journey that often restores a sense of peace, healing and spirituality to a person’s heart and soul. Yet after his 27-day, 600-mile walking pilgrimage across the Camino in France and Spain in late 2016, all that Peredo felt was a lingering combination of anger and brokenness. He was still trying to come to terms with the recent death of his father, who had always been his best friend. And he was still trying to completely recover emotionally and physically from the horrific accident in 2015 that nearly killed him. (Page 1)

Century-old Holy Trinity bells find new home at St. Malachy

For 107 years, the three bronze bells of Holy Trinity Church on Indianapolis’ west side called local Catholics to worship. But the bells of the Slovenian-founded parish fell silent on Nov. 30, 2014, when the faith community was merged with nearby St. Anthony Parish. For more than 50 years, former Holy Trinity parishioner Paul Barbarich listened to the bells—and sometimes rang them. With a few tears in his eyes, Barbarich, 58, watched as the 600-, 900- and 1,800‑pound auditory icons were removed from their tower on March 14. He shared his thoughts with The Criterion as a large crane extracted the bells one by one. (Page 10)
