My Visita Iglesia de Paa 2014.
My 8th year.
The heat was excruciating but when you have a goal, nothing will stop you. This is my annual panata and I am happy to have successfully done it for 8 years straight. As long as I can do this, I will try to do so. The
feeling of gratitude and fullfillment afterwards is so worth all the physical discomfort. The 8 hours or more of walking is for a higher sacrifice. Completed again all 13 churches.
Thank you for the guidance, Lord.
