Manage episode 291674058 series 2798549
Father Eric Weldon, pastor of Sacred Hearth Church, in Colwich, KS is the founder of the annual "Father Kapaun Walk". This journey starts in Wichita, and progresses on foot for over 60 miles, to Father Kapaun's home town of Pilsen, KS. Over the last decade, thousands of pilgrims have walked the 4 day journey, with hundreds making the pilgrimage each year. Learn the inspiration and origins of the pilgrimage, and how sacred, and sacrificial acts can bring you closer to our Lord. Father Eric shares a very similar back ground to our podcast's name sake, having served in the US Army, as well as being a brother priest to Fr. Kapaun. He also talks about the significance of the recent news regarding finding Fr. Kapaun, and how this year a record number of pilgrims is expected to lace up their shoes to join on this holy journey.
