Will you please pray for this fall’s pilgrimage walk and for Bishop Thomas K. Gorman Catholic School?

Dear friend of Bishop Gorman,

The Camino de Santiago, or in English the Way of St. James, is a network of pilgrims’ ways leading to the shrine of the apostle James in the cathedral of Santiago de Compostela in northwestern Spain, where tradition holds that the remains of the apostle are buried. Many still follow its routes as a form of spiritual path or retreat for their spiritual growth. It has been declared to be one of the three great pilgrimages of Christendom, along with Jerusalem, and the Via Francigena to Rome. (Excerpts from Wikipedia’s “Camino de Santiago”)

This fall I’m walking 900 miles (10 weeks, 6 days per week, 15 miles per day) from Paris to Santiago de Compostela. I will walk and pray for Bishop Gorman Catholic School in Tyler, Texas. Since 1958, our school has been through many changes. The one constant is Jesus Christ. He is the reason for Bishop Gorman Catholic School.

Will you please pray for this pilgrimage walk and for our school?

Thank you! Rachel Cammack

Will you please “sponsor” this fall’s pilgrimage walk? 100% of your donation will go to the BG Fund. No donated dollars will go towards any personal trip expenses.
