Galway Camino Pilgrim Walk 2024

Completed the Galway Camino Pilgrim Walk 2024

Galway Camino Pilgrim Walk 2024

(The Order of the Knights of St Columbanus)

A walk of all the Churches in Galway

Galway Cathedral. Franciscan Abbey. St Nicholas. The Augustinian.

St Mary's Dominican Church. St Josephs Church. The Poor Clare's Chapel.

It took over an hour, but I met lots of nice people who were also doing the walk, and of course the knights, who had to stamp your walking book in every Church.

Pope Francis Memory

I remember collecting coupons in the Irish Daily Mail and the Irish Mail on Sunday to get this commemorative medal. It took weeks, and perhaps a few extra runs to the shop. But now I can look at this and remember Pope Francis in Ireland

My Rite of Admission into the Secular Franciscan Order

Today I had my RITE OF ADMISSION into the Secular Franciscan Order in Galway. I have been learning for a year and now I am progressing in my Formation. It is the Secular Franciscan Order or Lay Franciscans. They gave me a little TAO cross and the Rule. The Rule isn't a book of rules btw It is daily prayers you're encouraged to pray and information on the Order.

Welcome to my Prie-Dieu

Welcome to my Pire-Dieu. A Pire-Dieu is a Prayer Desk in a church which is used for devotional purposes. You can kneel and pray, but it also comes with a little shelf for prayer books and other contemplative items. This is a virtual version of my shelf. I will post my articles, letters and other Catholic activity here. Image: Window in the Franciscan Abbey Church, Galway, Ireland.
