At the end of their journey, Eileen and Jim attended Mass at the Cathedral of Saint James the Apostle. Afterward, their friend Don spotted a young woman wearing a Fordham shirt. As it turned out, she was part of a group of 20 Fordham students walking the Camino with their professors.
Eileen and Jim told the group all about Christopher and shared a philosophy paper he wrote while at Fordham about living a meaningful life and having a positive impact on the world. The students were deeply touched, exchanging hugs, Live Like Chris bracelets, and prayer cards.
“There are no coincidences,” as Eileen always says. Meeting Fordham students on the very last day of the Camino felt like a beautiful reminder of that. The patron saint of travelers is Saint Christopher, after all. ❤️
