SPIRITOURS NEWSLETTER
JANUARY 2017
Greetings!
We take this opportunity to wish you a happy new year 2017 filled with love, peace, harmony and much joy!
Our latest Economy of Communion Project
We'd like to share with you a letter that we received from the NGO Action Rehabilitation (Le Sac A Dos)
which strive for the social and economic integration of persons living in a situation of homelessness. We organised a personal renewal trip for them to a beautiful retreat center at Lake Bouchette, Québec (in the Saguenay-Lac-St-Jean region). Seven former homeless people, enrolled in a social and economical reinsertion program, took part in the trip with two social workers from the NGO and a driver-guide from Spiritours. This trip was a break from their usual living conditions and a chance to get some perspective on their lives. You can read their impression here.
In this newsletter you will find information about two of our upcoming pilgrimages. Please don't hesitate to contact us on our toll free line 1-866-331-7965 if you have any question.
Warm regards,

This pilgrimage offers participants two options: one with a focus on Early Celtic Christian culture, and the other is an extended pilgrimage by foot through stunning land- and sea-scapes to the oldest known site of Celtic Christianity in Scotland.

Great biblical figures, such as Jesus, Moses or Paul, have revealed God to us. They have traveled long roads that you will take on this blessed land. Your experience will be enriched by the contact with local people. Our pilgrimage to the Holy Land invites you to discover several historical and archaeological sites that will bring you into an amazing cultural and spiritual experience on the very site of the revelation of God. Come and live a strong moment of faith renewal and encounter with yourself and others.
