A great way to spend 33 days

The whole idea of a pilgrimage fascinates me. I love the concept of traveling to a distant place in the hope of drawing closer to God. But it never occurred to me that, before venturing out, I should prepare spiritually for the experience.

33 Days to Prepare Your Heart for Pilgrimage by Fr. Mark Toups is an essential resource for anyone hoping to go on a spiritual adventure. Fr. Toups is a gifted writer who eloquently leads readers on a journey to Jesus.

Each reflection is spot-on and carries great spiritual significance. I would say that anyone who prays through this book will be ready to take on the challenges that pilgrimages bring.

A pilgrimage is not a sightseeing trip. It is ideally an experience of the Lord. It is important that we ready our hearts for what God has in store for us. Reading this book is a critical first step.
