You almost certainly have seen The Way. Perhaps Walking the Camino—Six Ways to Santiago. If you go looking, you’ll find dozens of Camino films and videos — full-length and shorts, dramas, travelogues, documentaries and introspections, enigmatic (Luís Buñuel!) — even a comedy (Saint-Jacques… La Mecque)! If you’d like some ideas, we’ll suggest checking out the…

Tertulia? “Un grupo informal de personas que se reúnen habitualmente para conversar o recrearse.” “An informal meeting of people who gather regularly to talk about current affairs, arts, etc.” Well, we might guess that “etc” means “Camino”! And “virtual” means “virtual”! For those of you who have attended our in-person tertulias, this won’t be nearly…

Thursday, April 16th at 4:00 we’ll have a virtual Camino bookclub via Zoom. It’s likely that all of us have at least one Camino-related book on the shelf. Some of us have…

The Chapter coordinators have decided to cancel this outing. Just too much going on. And obviously you all can get out and do some social distancing on your own! The May 9th High Line to Fairmount Cemetery walk is still on the calendar and we’ll see what’s going on around the first of May. Be safe!…

Tertulia? “Un grupo informal de personas que se reúnen habitualmente para conversar o recrearse.” “An informal meeting of people who gather regularly to talk about current affairs, arts, etc.” Well, we all know what “etc” means! Past and future pilgrims are invited to convene for conversation, a small plate or two and a beverage. This will…

During the Middle Ages, before pilgrims left home they were afforded the benedictio perarum et baculorum, the ritual blessing of the pilgrim satchel and staff.
