  • Processional Cross the Cross Is The
    The Holy Rood Guild / Notes 3 - Processional Cross The cross is the mark of our identity as Christians. Signed with a cross at our baptism, we are most basically cross-bearers, Christbearers. The cross identifies us as those claimed by Christ. We belong to him, purchased at the price of his own blood. Baptized into Christ, the cross is our destiny and our only hope. Paul could therefore write boldly to the Galatians: "May I never boast except in the cross of Christ." (6:14) Yet for many early Christians the cross was an embarrassing symbol with its associations of scandal and humiliation. The first crosses displayed in public were small, timid inscriptions, not easily identifiable. There were X-shaped and T-shaped crosses and even little anchor-shaped crosses. Indeed for those Christians threatened with persecution the cross was a frightening symbol. The 4th century saw more confident depictions of the cross. It was sometimes adorned with the Lamb or the Hand of God in blessing. The persecution of the Church had ended. Christianity had been legitimized by Constantine, who abolished crucifixion throughout the empire out of respect for Christ. It was Constantine who first used the cross in official public insignia. He placed it on the imperial diadem as well as on the shields of his troops. Early accounts are inconsistent, but it seems that just before the battle of the Milvian bridge, he had a dream in which Christ told him to paint on the shields of his soldiers an inverted "X" with one arm curved over - .

EMBODIED CONTESTATION: ALTERNATIVE RITUAL CONCLUSIONS ON THE CAMINO DE SANTIAGO by CLARE VAN HOLM Under the Direction of Kathryn McClymond, PhD ABSTRACT Despite its nearly thousand year history as a Christian penitent ritual, the Camino de Santiago pilgrimage has undergone rapid transformation in the last three decades, attracting a specific community of people who see themselves as “authentic” Camino pilgrims. Upon arrival at the shrine of Santiago, the traditional end of the pilgrimage route, many pilgrims express feelings of dissatisfaction. Drawing upon field research and interviews, this paper analyzes the practices of pilgrims along the Camino de Santiago route, at the shrine in Santiago de Compostela, and at the alternative conclusion site in the Galician coastal town of Finisterre. I argue that pilgrim dissatisfaction relates to pilgrim experiences in Santiago that are incongruous with their pilgrimage up until that point. In response, pilgrims have created alternative ritual conclusions that more closely relate to their experience on the Camino route and affirm their identity as “authentic” pilgrims.

Our bodies each have many parts. We have eyes to see and ears to hear. We have mouths to speak and noses to smell. We have legs to walk, knees to bend, arms to reach, hands to hold. We have brains to think and hearts to love. The church is Christ’s body, made up of many parts. Christ is the head and we are the members. Worship is something that the whole body of Christ does— head and members together. We do some things all together: like sitting, standing, bowing, singing, walking in procession. And different parts of the body do different things so that the whole body can celebrate. One person reads while all listen. Some people play musical instruments while all sing. All of these things are done so that the whole body of Christ can give God thanks and praise.

  • The Camino De Santiago IV
    The Camino de Santiago IV In 1491, Finisterre was thought to be the end of the earth. During the Middle Ages, many pilgrims who completed their pilgrimage at the cathedral in Santiago de Compostela would continue their walk, an additional 40 miles or so, to arrive here at the northernmost tip of Spain to look out over the Atlantic, nothing but endless ocean. This was as far as they could walk in this direction; this was their end of the earth. They must have wondered. In 2000, after completing my own pilgrimage, I took a bus to the base of those very same ocean-side bluffs and hiked up their sides so that I, too, could look at what they saw. I sat there for hours, looking. I also wondered. I don’t know what a religious experience is, and for this reason, I cannot say I have ever had such an experience, but I do know that those hours spent looking over the ocean from the end of the earth were memorable ones, hours that will never be erased until I am gone. Perhaps it was the afterglow of accomplishment of having walked 450 miles, perhaps it was the relief I felt because I no longer had to force myself to strap on a backpack and undertake yet another nine-hour walk, or perhaps I was simply on holiday. I do not know. Perhaps it was the stillness of the day or the rustle of the waves below, the touch of salt in the air, or the joyful shriek of the gull.

    Mondariz - Vigo - Santiago a brief history of galicia’s Edwardian tourist boom Booth Line. r.M.S. antony Mondariz - Vigo - Santiago a brief history of galicia’s Edwardian tourist boom KIRSTY HOOPER Edita Fundación Mondariz Balneario Dirección editorial Sonia Montero Barros Texto Kirsty Hooper Realización editorial Publitia Imágenes XXXXXX I.S.B.N. 978-XXXXXXX Depósito Legal X-XXX-2013 Prohibida la reproducción total o parcial de esta obra mediante impresión, fotocopia, microfilm o cualquier otro sistema, sin permiso por escrito del autor. DRAFT Prologue to Mondariz, Vigo, Santiago. this delightful book gives a wonderful insight into the Edwardian tourist industry and the early promotion of the treasures of galicia in Britain. it points not only to the wonderful cultural and natural heritage on offer but emphasises the quality of the experience and in particular the hospitality received by visitors to Mondariz. Wind the clock forward one hundred years or so and we find the treasures are still ex- tant though the competition for tourism has increased substantially across the globe. From my own experience a recent stay at Balneario de Mondariz perfectly encapsulates all the favourable comments reflected in this book. the conservation of the cultural and natural heritage is of fundamental importance to the well-being of society. the national trust in England, Wales and northern ireland, a non-governmental organisation founded in 1895, is an exemplar in this respect, having today over 4 million members and employing 6000 staff and over 70,000 volunteers. its properties receive over 19 million visitors each year. in galicia the beginnings of such an organisation, in this case tesouros de galicia, is a brilliant and much needed concept and the hope is that, in time, it will spread to the whole of Spain.

    Visit us 12 Recommended Camino de Santiago Tours 2021 Holy Year by EATour Specialist / What Camino de Santiago Tour should I do? Here we will recommend some Camino de Santiago Tours to consider for your next trip. Read More What is the Jacobean Year? Whenever St James´s day (25th July) falls on a Sunday, the cathedral announces it a Holy or Jubilee Year (Xacobeo in the Galician Language). This happens with a regular cadence of 6-5-6-11 years (The last Holy Year was 2010). Next year will be a special year for the city of Santiago de Compostela and the St James Way since they will be celebrating the Holy Year 2021 (Xacobeo). The celebration of each Holy Year grants indulgence to all those faithful who voluntarily meet the following conditions: Visit the Santiago de Compostela Cathedral, in Galicia, Spain. Pray regularly. It is also highly recommended to attend the Holy Mass in / Santiago de Compostela Cathedral. Receive the sacraments of penance and communion in the fifteen days prior to or after visiting the Santiago de Compostela Cathedral. Furthermore, people usually access the cathedral through the Holy Door which only opens on this occasion. If you are lucky during mass at the cathedral the priest (takes quite a few!) will swing on occasion the "Botafumeiro" (An XXL incense burner). It swings up high from nave to nave and weights about 120 pounds! This was to clean the smell in the air since there are so many pilgrims attending the mass. https://youtu.be/MYqfQXPGemA The Camino de Santiago walk is a great way to enjoy / the outdoors following along the ancient Pilgrimage way passing through quaint historic villages, green landscapes, etc..
