Santiago de Compostela and Black Madonnas: A Stay-at-home Pilgrimage (online)

Michael O'Neill McGrath, OSFS

November 9, 2021

Pilgrimages are grace-filled opportunities for growth and renewal, even the ones you make from your easy chair!  Journey on the historic pilgrim route from Paris to northwest Spain through art and stories taken from the pages of Bro. Mickey’s travel sketchbooks and journals.

The tomb of St. James continues to be one of the most popular pilgrim destinations for people of all faiths and backgrounds from around the world.

Discover some of the greatest art and architecture of European history and “walk” in the footsteps of saints from across the ages. From Black Madonnas to Gothic architecture, from modern cities to medieval cliffside towns, we will see the timeless beauties of religious faith and rediscover what is still relevant for us today, in our own difficult times of unrest and uncertainty.
