Pilgrimage & Retreat: Day 5

Morning: Psalms 137, 144; Micah 5:1-14, 10-15; Acts 25:13-27
Evening: Psalm 104; Luke 8:16-25

Today we will be on the River Guamá, one of the tributaries of the mighty Amazon, close here to where it flows into the Atlantic Ocean.  We are to witness a procession of the faithful in boats down the River to the city of Belém.  I am mindful of today’s Gospel story of Jesus in the boat with his frightened disciples.  Question for you today:  What is it that makes you afraid?  Do you think faith could help you find courage?
