Last year, the Diocese of Leeds Chief Operating Officer’s pilgrimage in Italy along the St Francis Way was serialised in The Catholic Universe.  

This year Ian Burrell walked a shorter but equally challenging ‘Camino’ through the Apennines.  His pilgrim’s progress along some of the most picturesque stages of the Via Francigena may be read in the current week’s Catholic Universe (published 9 August) – or viewed here: ViaFrancigena_Catholic Universe Article

Walk this Way…
