Cristo_ReyIt’s been quite a while since I posted anything here but I’ve been wanting to get back in the swing.  Some of you might know about the little pilgrimage that I made with Cecilia (2 1/2 years), my youngest.  From October to March, we made a visit each week to every one of the Catholic Churches located within the city limits of Austin. 

Sometimes we attended Mass, sometimes we just said a quick prayer or gave Mary a kiss, and a few times we were locked out.  We regularly posted the pictures of our trips on my blog.

A lot of people have told me they wish that they had thought of it – but that’s no reason not to do it anyway.  For those of you who live in larger towns, I’ve got to really reccomend that you give it a try.  You wouldn’t believe how excited Cecilia would get when the day would come each week to find a new one.  We learned quite a bit not only about churches  in Austin, but about the Faith itself.  It was a big letdown when we were done. 

Now we’re starting it up again, visiting all the surrounding towns.  This Part II may take a bit longer…

Here’s a video compilation of the pilgrimage here.

    I have seen some of your pilgrimage pictures, I highly recommend the everyone seeing your visual record.

    We have been doing something similar with the California Missions – though we have been stalled for a while.
