Encouragement for being on the way. On centuries-old pilgrimage paths, people have intense experiences with themselves and with God. Thoughts flow, there is time and space for inner retreat, and the perspective on the small things in nature becomes sharper. Efforts and certain difficulties encourage sharing and opening up to others. This small prayer book aims to be a quiet companion for all these experiences - like a good friend who is there when you need them. It contains prayers of praise, thanksgiving, and blessings, as well as litanies for the journey and prayers to Mary. Encouraging and comforting - for individual prayer and in community.
