Jesus Trail Update

Last year, a group of School of the Pilgrim pilgrims met with David Landis and his girlfriend who were on the "road", on pilgrimage, talking about the 65 km Jesus Trail. It is a trail that is found by using something akin to a GPS system currently, without any marked trail, places to stay per se, ala Santiago de Compostela.

Nonetheless, Matt Norvell sent me a snippet from Haaretz about the trail's completion by the time the Pope arrives in the coming weeks.

Buen Camino!

Hi Brett,

Thanks for posting this update about the Jesus Trail. We're excited about many new developments.

Just wanted to update you on two pieces of information in your blog: one, we do have accommodations along the road and are working to develop more homestay options (as in Cana). We list some options on our web site:http://jesustrail.com/trail-information/accomodations

Also, half of the trail was marked with paint blazes last week, with the other half on schedule to be painted by the end of March, so the GPS system is no longer necessary.

Hope you're doing well and get a chance to come walk the trail soon!

All the best,
Anna
