A book I highly recommend is "The Art of Pilgrimage." It really made the distinction for me clear between traveling as a tourist and making a pilgrimage.
Can I share two thoughts on pilgrimage?
1) Pilgrimage is a return journey. For medieval pilgrims, there was an outward and a return journey. We tend to focus on the outward, but the return is maybe more significant. The outward is the journey of acc…
I'm wondering if COTA was using the Stations from that I put together for the ERD Lenten Resources last year...

Pilgrimage
This is the first time in several years that I haven't spent March preparing to leave for El Salvador, to be a pilgrim on the road to the tomb of Archbishop Oscar Romero. I've been thinking a great deal about pilgrimage lately. As part of a course this January we had to write up a "Rule of Life." We had to describe the faith practices that give meaning and shape to our life. I included a section on pilgrimage.

Standing on your Head for Lent.
Sometimes Jesus doesn’t make a lot of sense. In today’s Gospel reading he exhorts his followers to fast, but also tells them not to make a big deal of it. Though the Old Testament reading from Joel tells us to “Blow the Trumpet. Sanctify a fast.” Jesus says specifically, “Do not blow a trumpet.” Confusing.

saw on your blog about the MDG stations - we did a similar thing at EDS but over the course of morning prayer for a week and had a U2charist to culminate ... I like how you've made it all into one liturgy - not "witchy" at all!! And I think very accessible esp for young people so right on!!
blessings ... as you're a seminarian, do you know The Beatitudes Society? check them out!
peace and welcome here!
