I wonder is there much scriptural backing to these claims. Most of these claims are based on remarks of Vladimir Soloviev, a Russian theologian, I guess I must read them also and make up my own mind.
I think the last of the 3 day pilgrimages ends on August 15th, so it's only day trips after that. Pray that I'll have the strength to endure - it hits all my comfort areas - sleep and food
i only ever did the day trip. But there were two Bishops with us on the bus and they said mass which was nice. When do I ever get a chance to chat with bishops?
Awesome and good luck. I have done it twice now this past year and it is wonderful!!! If you need to discuss or find yourself struggling with getting through do not hesitate to lean on us for support. The only reason I did again this year was to join the group here that was looking to do it this year and to be there to discuss and for support.
