Annual Camino Walk set to take place in Kilkenny

On Sunday July 30, at 2.30 pm, the annual 'Camino Walk' will take place in Jenkinstown Park. 

The walk will start at the nearby church, stopping at different points to remember the themes and pointers of the Santiago de Compostella Walk.

Pilgrim reflections and thoughts from Santiago will be read, while a stop at St.Colman’s Well will also take place.

Clara Parish Priest, Fr. Willie Purcell, has made the journey on numerous occasions and still believes the walk has great value.

“The walk is an opportunity to capture the spirit of the Camino and to talk with many who have walked the Camino and get to know more about what the walk involves. The day is open to all who wish to learn more about the Camino or just meet up with friends who have walked it. The Camino is a personal journey which some people do individually or as a group, however, if you walk it, your life is changed“, commented Fr. Willie.

Larry Carroll, a previous walker of the Camino said: “The walk brings together not only pilgrims who have walked the Camino but also many who intend walking this year or in the future“.

Anybody is welcome to attend. For further details contact Fr. Willie Purcell on 0876286858
