Don't forget our Welcome Home Celebration on Tuesday, December 14, 7:00 - 8:30 PM! Let's welcome home our fellow pilgrims who made it back to the Camino this year under such extraordinary circumstances. Our virtual celebration on Zoom will feature a lively musical sing-along led by “returnee” Ana Luisa Paniagua Anzore (Camino Francés) and insightful remarks on returning from the Camino from Colorado pilgrim and life coach Kathy Kehe. We’ll also spotlight the recent Caminos of Meliea and Stephen Lane (Camino Portugués) and Laurin Beckhusen (Via de la Plata) and then invite returnees in the audience to share a bit of their experiences in an “open mic” segment.
