First,  a  little  bit  about  one  of  Jesus’s  most  important  followers:  

the  Apostle  St  James

5

Page 6: Camino Challenge Presentation

St  James  is  one  of  the  12  Apostles  

He  is  the  brother  of  John.  

With  St  Peter,  they  appear  to  have  a  

special  place  among  the  other  Apostles:  

they  are  present  at  important  events  

such  as  when  Jesus  was  praying  in  the  

Garden  of  Gethsemane  on  the  night  

before  His  crucifixion.  

 James’  was  martyred  (killed  for  

following  Jesus)  by  King  Herod.

ST  JAMES

St  James  is  the  

Patron  Saint  of  Spain.

Page 7: Camino Challenge Presentation

The  Apostles  spread  around  the  

world  preaching  about  Jesus.  James  

went  to  Spain.  

After  his  martyrdom  in  Jerusalem,  his  

body  was  returned  to  Spain  in  a  stone  

boat,  which  legend  says  was  carried  by  

angels  to  Finisterre  from  where  the  local  

queen  brought  it  inland.  

HIs  tomb  was  rediscovered  in  the  9th  

century  after  a  vision  in  which  a  hermit,  

Pelayo,  was  led  to  St  James’  grave.  

Since  then  it  has  been  an  important  

centre  of  pilgrimage.

St  James  is  the  Patron  

Saint  of  Spain.

The Way of St James

There  are  many  different  routes  and  many  different  starting  points  that  make  up  the  Camino.

El Camino de Santiago

Page 9: Camino Challenge Presentation

The  most  popular  route  is  known  as  the  ‘Camino  Francés’.  It  begins  in  France  at  St  Jean  Pied  de  Port.  This  route  was  followed  in  the  film  starring  Martin  Sheen  called  ‘The  Way’
