Why Pilgrimage?

Diocese of Maitland Newcastle

What makes us embark on a pilgrimage? Going on a pilgrimage usually starts as a personal call, an invitation to leave our comfort zones. 

Sometimes, depending on our age and experience, there can be feeling that we need to be reconciled with our past. Sometimes it involves a question about the future: What do I really want? Sometimes the call to pilgrimage is the recognition that we need to change. Sometimes it&#x27;s about facing an unresolved crisis. Sometimes we walk because life has slowly dried out our souls. For some the motivation for pilgrimage is a thirst for life, a thirst for God, a thirst to encounter Jesus Christ, a thirst for the inner guidance of the Spirit. Life wounds all of us, and pilgrimage can be a means of healing and reconciliation. The desire of the pilgrim is to be reconciled and to return home healed and ready for new adventures knowing that life itself is a pilgrimage. Why Pilgrimage? presented by Rev. Dr Michael Smith SJ
