Join me on the Camino Frances (French Route) of the Camino de Santiago (Way of St James) as I pilgrimage from St Jean Pied de Port to Santiago de Compostela. I am walking these 500 miles as part of my sabbatical from my role as Minister (Team Leader) at St Peter's Baptist Church in Worcester. (Thank you to my church family for releasing me.)
I’ve chosen to undertake this journey to get time to think, reflect and pray. I will be sharing where I am, how I'm doing and both my physical and spiritual journey as I venture over the Pyrenees and across northern Spain to Galicia. Each day I will share the many different experiences that make up a camino. I hope you get something helpful out of connecting with me.

Andy- I just recently found your channel but am a “Perpetual pilgrim” having walked the Camino 2x and looking forward to Camino ‘25 in the spring ! Thanks so much for your Camino ministry . I look forward to reading the Peterson book but also plan to spend some time with the Psalms next spring on my pilgramage. Well done and Buen Camino !! I spend a lot of time trying to put my mind on Camino when I’m at home in the States.
May God bless the rest of your sabbatical mate, see you in September and take care x
What a wonderful journey. So Blessed to have shared it with you in this way. Thank you. I will miss these Vlogs but equally eager to share in the next stage too. So great to see you this morning! ❤
It’s been so good to follow your journey. I’m going to miss the daily vlogs. And really hope we will get to meet Cody at some point 😊
Thank you Andy. Before your sabbatical I spoke with you and I said I hope you bring something back for us. Your Camino was more than ‘something’ it was an ‘eye opener’ and a time of searching. Enjoy the rest of your sabbatical Many blessings, Mike 😊
Great welcome home to finish!
I’m just eleven minutes through; my eyes are waterfalls, I see Cody has your necklace/cross!
Ah that made me well-up with happy tears ❤
@@jennyclarke2855 The last few days were mega emosh!
God bless you on your ongoing journey, and when you are ready, God will always be ready to travel on your journey wherever it takes you. 🙏🕊😊
Beautiful. What a journey! And our generous God has taught us all something through your experience. Thanks for sharing it 😊 and congratulations 🎉❤.
Wow! So amazing. Fisterra is almost a magical feeling place isnt it. So glad your feeling so refreshed and close to God.
It really is!
Great to hear your reflections on your journey. Glad to hear that it has exceeded your expectations and that you are enriched by the experience.
It's not the end of your journey it's a new journey beginning. We climb mountains, see the other side, and come down with new expectations. That's what God has given you when you return to Worcester 😊 this will stay with you on the new journey. We all need space in our lives, in this case, meeting new people. God's people and neighbours.
Made it! 🙌🏻 Can’t wait to see you!❤
Caminando por la hermosa Galicia. Gracias.
Great to hear your reflections on the pace of life you have been able to enjoy and the time spent with God.
An unhurried spacious life without being on Camino or in lockdown. Let’s encourage one another to find those ways in day to day life. Healed for Life today so expecting God to speak about even this 🙏
Caminando por la hermosa GALICIA. Gracias.
Amazing! The arrival is such a moving moment. My Camino Finisterre and Camino Muxia are on my channel, if you're interested. Buen Camino!
I'll check it out!
If you say that to me when I’m struggling up a hill, you may not be met with the most gracious response!!!
Enjoying this bonus episode. I feel really blessed by what you have shared - even if I'm doing it from the comfort of my sofa.
Glad you enjoy it!
‘Only mad dogs and Englishmen …….’ so why was Cody there? Friendship I guess.
Yep. He’s just as mad as I am.
That was a push in the afternoon! Waiting for those a day behind exemplifies the community spirit among you pilgrims.
Amazing! Huge congratulations 🎊 👏 🙌
Thank you!!
What Joy as you all reached the cathedral! And for us too hearing it’s not the end quite yet 🙌 Take care Andy and Cody 🙏
Hooray! Not the end after all - we get the bonus edition. Thank you .
Delighted to know that you arrived in time to consider the costal option - and that you and Cody are taking it!
Well done mate, I have really enjoyed these videos. Your musings have been inspiring. 👍🎉
Blessings Andy, I was moved to tears seeing you arrive at the cathedral.
This is so great! I've really enjoyed following your progress. 🎉🎉
I'm so glad!
Wow, that was a journey. Well done Andy, congratulations. Will a book be coming on??? Mike and Maggie
God, push you through the pain, and your faith in God will carry forward. Wherever you go.Give praise to the Lord Aman. 🙏
Why did the cow cry when you finished your Camino? He was mooooooved to tears. Why did the sheep respond in bafflement? He thought the cow was baaaaaaaarking mad. Congratulations Andy, well done.
What a day, what a journey, wonderful experience and huge blessings, but you want to walk further?!!!
Fullness in simplicity. Amen.
One of a big lessons I’ve learned!
Congratulations It has been fabulous being able to follow you on your journey.

I can’t believe we’ve both had the “pleasure” of bagpipes recently! Loved the other instrument. Any ideas what it was?
Congratulations! I’m so proud of you! (And Boris!) 🎉🙌🏻💥🥂
Thanks hon!
Woohoo 🙌
So thankful that your pilgrimage is refreshing you spiritually. I am thankful to you Andy as reflecting on all you are saying and it is helping me a lot. Thank you hugs
This must be a highly emotional answer spiritual time, reaching the final stage(s) - savour it!
Incredible!
The drum is more pleasing to my ear than bagpipes.
God provided you camino friends like Cody. Love watching your journey with God to Santiago. You’re true pilgrim cause you really walk with our Lord sharing His words and love to us as you walk. I love how you don’t linger on judging pilgrims who started in Sarria that they’re not true pilgrims because they did not start from SJPDP. For me how may your camino be long or short it’s your love for God that’s why you’re walking with Him. Buen Camino and God bless you always!
Loved Cody’s photobombing! The hydrangeas in our garden are also looking especially good this year. Not far to go now!!
Obvious genuine appreciation of your noodles from Cody. A high point on your journey indeed! Missing you and Ruth hosting the leaders and staff BBQ this summer 😁
I believe that God sends people like Cody into our lives and the others' travellers alone our way it may be a short time but leaves a lasting impression. I believe you will go home back to Worcester 😊. With a lasting impression of God's love for you and you will give God's love to everyone that comes your way. 🙏🕊
