Saint James / Jacques
With a light heart and a firm tread the Pilgrim passes along the Way - savouring the scented air and the song of the breeze.
In his superbly inspiring book The Art of Pilgrimage Phil Cousineau reminds us of the potential for experiencing the sacred on our travels. When encountering
St James we are reminded of the different aspects of ourselves; St James appears as a pilgrim to inspire those en route to his shrine at Santiago de
Compostela, and also as Santiago Matamoros - the Moor Slayer - to encourage those who strive for justice.
