Omschrijving

I'm inviting you to join me on a pilgrimage I'll be making with a friend of mine! This pilgrimage will be of the imagination, of the heart. I suppose in truth, it's a fictitious pilgrimage. My friend is none other than St Francis of Assisi. For me, the imagination's a vital and an exciting tool for reliving something of a saint's life. So I'll be, as it were, 'walking and talking' with you, through these pages, about the story of the pilgrimage which'll take who knows how long. At each stage, I'll have my own personal reflections and I'll be addressing you personally in the hope to make some connection with where you might be. The story of the pilgrimage, apart from walking, is mostly about ordinary experiences: eating, resting, talking, getting irritated, being bored, embarrassed, delighted: and any other mood you care to add. I'll be picturing Francis, my friend and I hope yours also, carrying a copy of St Matthew's Gospel in his pocket, as I will myself. Maybe you'll do the same.
