About
Pilgrims tell their tales of pilgrimage: along Il Camino to Santiago de Compostela, Santiago de Compostela, to the Holy Land, Lourdes, Guadalupe, Częstochowa, Divine Mercy Shrine Krakow, Medjugorje, Paray-le-Monial, St Davids, to the Hill of Crosses in Lithuania and Chapel on the Rock in the USA. St JPII at World Youth Day 1989 / JMJ Compostela: "Pilgrimage has a very deep spiritual significance.. In the world today there is a revival of the practice of going on pilgrimage, especially among the youth. Today, you are among those more inclined to experience a pilgrimage as a "way" to interior renewal, to a deepening of faith, a strengthening of the sense of communion and solidarity and as a help in discovering your personal vocation." St JPII was a pilgrim to 129 different countries on 104 apostolic voyages: "Each trip made by the Pope is 'an authentic pilgrimage to the living sanctuary of the People of God... the Pilgrim-Pope feels at home everywhere, even 'among strangers'." Music by Olen Cesari. For much more, visit Totus2us.com - dedicated to Our Lady, it is inspired by Saint John Paul II, Papa Benedict XVI and Pope Francis.
