Experience a divine way to wander
In the Celtic tradition of Christianity, those on pilgrimage didn’t have a definite destination. They only knew and trusted the God who called them as they headed out.
In some way, this is a parable of the past year, which has felt like a time of wandering for many people. We make plans only for them to be changed, maybe even several times before they are canceled all together. We long for some anchor in this uncertainty.
This spring, InterVarsity Study Abroad is offering an opportunity to find that anchor during our newest digital pilgrimage, Via Divina: The Celtic Way.
For groups exceeding 20, feel free to email us for discounts and potential customized experiences.
