"That's really what we're there for, isn’t it? To fulfill our Christian mandate to meet the needs of those around us. So that when the Lord asks us when we close our eyes, ‘What did you do? Did you feed the hungry? Did you visit the prisoner? Did you clothe the naked?’ We really want to give everyone the opportunity and the place where they can do all these things and answer to Our Lord: ‘Yes, I did.’”
STORIES WANTED!!! Starting September 1, Axia's church year will be focused on PILGRIMAGE.
If you've taken part in a pilgrimage recently or long ago, we'd love to hear about it! It could be a journey to a monastery, a weeks-long trek on the Camino or other established trail, or a trip to a place that is holy to you, or some other sacred travel. The piece should be between 500 and 1500 words long. Send to [email protected] with the subject line "My Pilgrimage Story." We'll be picking at least six for our new blog series over the coming months. We can't wait to read what you write!
