[Distanced] sharing of bread and wine at God\u2019s table was a powerful statement to the connections being made and the oneness of God\u2019s people in ways unanticipated. Anywhere can become a place for an encounter with the Holy.\u201d<\/em> \u2013 Ed Evans, former virtual pilgrimage participant<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cThanks to the staff of Global Ministries in making this pilgrimage possible. This information was not only instructive, but I felt like a made new friends in Christ&#8230; I hope that there will be more opportunities like this.\u201d<\/em> \u2013 Ken Moore, former virtual pilgrimage participant<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cI found the virtual pilgrimage to be much more than I expected. To have the translations made each day more meaningful. I also signed up to share the experience with our congregation conference in hopes to get more involvement in the future.\u201d<\/em> \u2013 Kenneth Crouch, former virtual pilgrimage
