As you read this bulletin reflection, I am still over in Spain on the Camino. One of the things I really love about the Camino is the history of this pilgrimage, which started in the early 9th century with the rediscovery of the tomb of St James the Apostle. At the time, Muslims were in control of much of the country of Spain, having invaded that country in 711 and not completely expelled from the country until 1492. In our Catholic faith we have a lot of old traditions that continue in our modern world. May is traditionally recognized as the month of Mary. Mary is an important part of our lives as Catholics. May we continue to honor and celebrate Mary in a special way during the month of May. Blessings to all of you - Father Lincoln.
