Pilgrimage: A gathering of pilgrims sharing life together in an intense, intentional time of cultural exploring and experiencing...

In a time when we are spending too much money and too many resources strategizing how God can and should work through our churches, perhaps He is wanting our focus to be much more on how He works through us in the world outside of our churches...how we live Church in the Story of everyday existence..how we intentionally live our lives as pilgrims in the art galleries, the schools, the sidewalks, the pubs, the cafes, the parks, the shops, the ghettos, the suburbs, the playgrounds, the offices...
