Walk With Us

Today we will board the plane and head out. Gill and I are definitely a little nervous, but I hope it is in a good way.  As we prepared a common question we received was "who is going with you?".  You cannot imagine the shock, awe, and sometimes horror we were met with when we each replied in turn, "my sister". I guess people really hold to the old adage safety in numbers. Still as we checked off our lists and set out our sandals, it became clear to me that there are a lot of people coming with us on this journey.  Much like our preparation people want to be a part of this pilgrimage.  From the gift of journals, hats, and even a carefully planned playlist, to the eager following of our blog, the want to join and be a pilgrim in the distance is astounding.  We have people following from a hospital in Louisville to a school in Chicago.  Churches, friends, family, and more. Perhaps there is something in this desire to join. There is a mystical and powerful piece to dropping mostly everything and walking.  As we walk we will be reading Acts and Proverbs, a chapter of each a day. I invite you to read along.  Come, walk with us.
