STM 2018 Women’s Trip El Camino

Life with Jesus is about the journey.


As women we spend our lives loving others and caring for their needs. If we are not careful, before we know it, we will lose touch with the greatest possible mission field — our own hearts.

Ministry doesn’t begin and end in the Church pew on Sunday; it should be a way of life and church planting should be a natural outpouring of our heart. On your journey you will be guided in discovering the Father’s voice for yourself and you will find the joy in praying for the locals as you build friendships that will last a lifetime.

Each day will begin in prayer. We’ll spend our mornings asking the Lord to guide us to those who might need us to cross their path.  We will spend our days praying over the communities we come in contact with, and in the evening we will gather to debrief and celebrate all that the Father has done in us and for us.


You will be forever changed by seeing the hand of God move on a daily basis with you and your new sisters!

The El Camino Santiago: The Way of St. James is journey about slowing down, intentionally engaging in conversation and taking each moment with reflection and purpose. 

Experience discipleship using the ancient tradition of pilgrimage, building relationships along the way. Get outside of your limits and walk a path where thousands have walked before. Gather with women and talk about what real community and life looks like. What does it mean to be a woman in today’s society and actively seek the Lord?

During this trek…

You will learn to find your strength in God and to focus on true discipleship in community.

Finisterre translates as the “end of the world” and for many pilgrims they feel that their journey is only complete when they can walk no more— hence the walk from Santiago to Finisterre on the Atlantic Coast.

The Journey…

Starting from the magnificent cathedral in Santiago, walk through the Galician countryside and medieval villages to finish up at the ocean. It is here that pilgrims would traditionally burn their boots after completing their pilgrimage. Only the hardiest of pilgrims complete this quieter route and for this reason the sense of camaraderie is incredible.
