THE 40 THOUSAND MILE MAN
by george walter
 IT BEGAN AS A SPIRITUAL QUEST BUT BECAME A PILGRIMAGE OF FAITH AND A WAY OF PROCLAIMING GOD’S LOVE.
Pilgrim George, as he came to be called, shares the intimate and moving story of his forty-thousand mile odyssey on foot, alone—without money—through forty-one countries on three continents.
Beginning as a quest for spiritual understanding during the cultural revolutions of the late 60s, his journey soon became a pilgrimage of faith, and a way of proclaiming God’s love.
Born and raised in the 1950’s in a Catholic neighborhood outside of Pittsburgh, in the foothills of the beautiful Appalachian Mountains, George early set his sights on priesthood and eventually completed twelve years of seminary education. Then, putting aside the clerical state, he became a “Pilgrim of the Absolute” in the cultural desert of the post-Christian West, while the Lord rebuilt his faith and sent him out on a mission to walk and to proclaim Jesus as “the Way the Truth and the Life.”
Now at the age of 75 he recounts the amazing course of his life.
Glory to Jesus Christ! Now and forever. Amen!
