    Pilgrim Blessing

    In the past have seen postings of a blessing that can be used by priests when a member of the congregation is about to embark on their Camino, but I can't locate it. Would someone post a copy of the traditional blessing used by priests when a person is about to leave for a religious pilgrimage...

    Holy Mass on the Primitivo

    Hola to fellow pilgrims. A quick question - with my son we are flying to Spain next week to start our Camino - so far it looks like starting in Villaviciosa (if we can reasonably get there in the late afternoon after arriving at the Asturias airport) and walking to Oviedo, and then following the...

    My journey with faith

    Dear all, Some of you might remember a thread I started last year about what to wear for attending church whilst on the Camino. The thread generated quite a bit of response. I thought it was high time to close the loop. Whilst walking from Porto to Santiago, I attended 3 services, one in...

    Churches and attire?

    When entering Churches in Spain, would it be disrespectful to enter in pilgrims attire? i.e. shorts, and backpack. Might it also matter depending on whether or not they are holding mass at the given time? Thanks for any helpful advice on the matter.

I also read a thread that was created to specifically answer this question, but again no one actually posted the time. Anways, that...

    Exploring Christian Liturgy and Rituals: A Pilgrim's Guide

    I’m best described as a lapsed Christian. I grew up in a North American baptist tradition and walked away in my late 20s. I’m hoping that my upcoming (first) Camino will allow me to re-connect, if not with my previous beliefs, at least with something more mystical and transcendent than the norms...

    Over 15 days into this pilgrimage so far and the majority of the holy buildings have been closed, can anyone give more insight or share their own thoughts please?

    Etiquette/ what to wear at churches

    Hello everyone, I was hoping for a little advice. I would like to visit and attend mass as often as I can along my Camino. I’m not Catholic or even Christian.
