On the Road to Guadalajara: St. Tomas to Magdalena On the Road to Guadalajara: St. Tomas to Magdalena
Here the old, unpaved cobbled road, brings you to another very old town with a fort, almost never visited by foreigners. The path brings you past abandoned mango groves and mountains leading down into an agricultural basin where they grow mostly agave (used to make Tequila). Magdalena is a beautiful city, with the cathedral, built by Franiscans as a monastery, completed in the mid 1700s. I stayed in a bed at the local Catholic Church, and had a very interesting conversation with the local priest, which I will tell you more about soon.

Santa Maria del Oro Santa Maria del Oro
I am starting to get into "old" mexico. This town was founded by the nephew of Cortez and has a rich history, often tragic, and at odds (I cant even say that...there were outrageous massacres here) between the indigenous and the Spanish seeking gold. The Francsicans tempered these abuses, protecting the Huichol, but discrimination is persistant.

Prayers: Group 1 Prayers: Group 1
This project s not about I, it is not about walking, and it is not about Brazil. This project is about the collecting and sharing of authentic prayers across the borders of language, culture, country, class, and creed. This project is about people praying for one another without judgement. This project is about you stepping into someone elses shoes, their view, their hopes, their fears, their families, and seeing that their prayers are often your own. This project is about seeing that walking is not difficult, just take the first step. That we make up in our minds what is difficult and important. This project is about us holding that with God, anything is possible in life. That what you think is possibile is possible and so much more when tapped into that realm beyond yourself. Pleae help translate the prayers, comment on the prayers, offer advice, love, and support.
