Coracle Pilgrimages in 2019

It’s almost the end of summer and many have traveled somewhere, or may try squeezing something in over the Labor Day weekend.  These journeys are meant to bring us to beautiful places, grant us restoration, time with loved ones, renewal of relationships, and respite from our normal rhythms. They are meant to help us return and enter into our normal lives refreshed and strengthened.  Pilgrimage is meant to do the same thing in our relationship with God.  We go on pilgrimage as a way to journey with God, to meet God, together.  It can be done individually, as many pilgrims did on the Way of St. James for centuries and still do today.  It can be done in a group, to experience the gift of community and walking together with common purpose – being on the journey together.  It can be done going to the grocery store, to the most remote ends of the earth, or to more traditional sites like the Holy Land.

At Coracle, the first part of our hope for everyone who passes through is spiritual formation that enables a strengthened, more profound relationship with God. One of the ways we’ve found to help enable that is to offer pilgrimages in community to places of brokenness, spiritual history and importance, incredible beauty, and often all three together.  You’ll see from our pilgrimage offerings in 2019, this is definitely the case.
