Western pilgrims make a resurgence

The Montreal Gazette features an article about the rise in Western pilgrims. The article quotes Matthew Anderson and Sara Terreault, lecturers in the Department of Theological Studies, who will be leading a bus pilgrimage this summer to the High Crosses in Ireland. Anderson is interviewed in another article in The Montreal Gazette about the appeal of the pilgrimage and discusses a documentary film that he is working on that investigates the question, “why do we walk?”. This article was reprised April 15 by The Leader-Post, The Ottawa Citizen, The Vancouver Sun, Canada.com, The Edmonton Journal, The Province and The StarPhoenix.
