Abstract

The author has researched the practice of pilgrimage in the early church. He suggests it offers a process for spiritual formation instructive to shaping a pilgrimage experience for a contemporary Presbyterian congregation. This pattern might inform how space is created for spiritual formation in other areas of the church's life. Using the patterns noted in patristic pilgrimage and via qualitative method, the author explores the formation evident in a mission trip experience shaped by early pilgrimage. The paper notes the pilgrims' affirmation of growth through an experience compatible with early practice and the Reformed tradition.
