vocations director shares his story

Mr. Dag Syversen President Canterbury Pilgrimages & Tours, Inc. 166 S. River Rd. Suite 110 Bedford, NH 03110-6928 Dear Dag, Happy Easter! It's with joy, confidence and gratitude that I write this letter of recommendation for you and Canterbury Pilgrimages & Tours Inc. As a vocations director I'm often reminded how powerful pilgrimages can be in inspiring people to greater holiness and particularly young men and women to religious life and young men to the priesthood. A very major part of my own call came to me while on a pilgrimage with Canterbury Pilgrimages & Tours back in 1997. Each pilgrimage I have made, led and shared with others, has increased my faith and deep- ened my personal relationship with God. It's amazing how blessed we all feel, both during and after the pilgrimages. What a great gift it has been to walk where Jesus and Mary walked, to pray at her various Shrines where she brings us closer to Him, and to visit places made holy by the martyrs and saints. I look forward to our next pilgrimage together!

Dear Dag,

Happy Easter!

It's with joy, confidence and gratitude that I write this letter of recommendation for you and Canterbury Pilgrimages & Tours Inc.

As a vocations director I'm often reminded how powerful pilgrimages can be in inspiring people to greater holiness and particularly young men and women to religious life and young men to the priesthood.

A very major part of my own call came to me while on a pilgrimage with Canterbury Pilgrimages & Tours back in 1997. Each pilgrimage I have made, led and shared with others, has increased my faith and deep-ened my personal relationship with God. It's amazing how blessed we all feel, both during and after the pilgrimages.

What a great gift it has been to walk where Jesus and Mary walked, to pray at her various Shrines where she brings us closer to Him, and to visit places made holy by the martyrs and saints.

I look forward to our next pilgrimage together!

God bless,

Fr Jeremy Paulin OMVDirector of Vocations617-869-2429
