| Publisher Description: To go on pilgrimage is not simply to travel to a holy place, but it is to recognize that each day of our lives God calls us to draw nearer to him. This prayer book provides essential sustenance for pilgrimages of both kinds; whether our journey is physical or of the spirit, it will enable an to discover and celebrate Christ's presence with us at every step of the way. The Celtic vision of Christ present in all creation shapes each outline for daily prayer that is provided. The earth, the sky, trees, rivers, flowers, insects and all created things become stopping places for thanksgiving, reflection and refreshment as do the emotions that we experience along the way. From the uncertainties of setting out to the ecstasy of arriving, joys and trials alike point us to Christ and serve to bring us closer to our journey's end. |
