PilgrimageThursday, April 9, 20155:30 to 6:30 p.m. (2nd floor
classroom)Presenter: Dr. Jackie StewartCost: Free will ($5
suggested)
A Pilgrimage is different from a tour. I have mademany
pilgrimages to ancient Celtic sites and Irishmonasteries, places
associated with St. Francisand St. Clare of Assisi, and St. Joan of
Arc, pre-Christian European sacred places, literary sources,the
Holy Land of Israel/Palestinian territoriestheFifth Gospel, to name
a few. They all had anumber of things in common, not mere travel
butsoulful. Learn the seven stages of a sacredjourney, whether the
pilgrimage be virtual or real,near or far, literary, religious or
of another form.Recommended for all who have been on or
areconsidering going on a Pilgrimage of any kind.
(Especially recommended for upcoming Holy LandPilgrims, either
new or returning. This will also be anopportunity to meet Fr. Gene
Pistacchio, OFM inadvance of the Holy Land Pilgrimage.)
Contact Dr. Jackie Stewart to register at 617-542-6440ext. 143
or email [email protected]. Please leave your name, telephone
no., and thecourse, date/time you wish to attend.
