We believe that a pilgrimage is different from other kinds of trips because it is intentional, and has a spiritual component. We also believe that the pilgrimage begins before we step on the plane, or land in the new place. Preparation is part of pilgrimage, and that is what we are doing now. I (Kate) leave this Sunday, July 6 for South Africa. I have such a long To Do list to complete before then! And I am so excited about all that awaits me in South Africa. The other pilgrims (8 teenagers, two more adult chaperons and two host liaisons) will fly over mid-July. We will have two weeks to get to know the people of South Africa in the Anglican Diocese of False Bay, and in the process, get to know ourselves and our God better also. Please keep us in your prayers!
