Had my first ever winter tour downtown with some hearty souls who originally hail from Ethiopia and Eritrea. One plans to pursue monasticism in Texas, so it explains a bit why he is so hearty as to have a walking tour in frigid January.
Anyway, Happy New Year from Boston Pilgrim Tours!

So pleased to remember at the end of this month the conclusion of my own parents’ celebration of 50 years of marriage. As part of this year-long celebration, I took them on our Faith-based Freedom Trail tour last fall (see pictures below). Many years to them and to all parents who are embedding faith in the next generation of citizens for this great Land of the Free!

June 13/30, Feast of St. Botolph (Old Style)
Abbot and Confessor, of Ikanhoe, England (+680)
Patron saint of all Travelers,
Boston, England (founded 654)
Boston, Massachusetts (founded 1630)
and Patron of Botolph’s Town Tours (founded 2013)
Only two years ago today did we begin this effort that has become (to my knowledge) Boston’s ONLY faith-based tour company. And now two years later, we are still offering the kinds of tours that people of faith look for when they come to a historic city like our fair Boston. So book a tour today! You won’t be sorry that you did.
And watch this summer for the unveiling of our new living history tour. Last summer, John Eliot in the seventeenth century. This summer… someone from the eighteenth century who was famous for preaching on the Boston Common long before Billy Graham ever thought of it. Who could it be?

For my readers here, I am speaking at this upcoming conference. Would love to see you there…
Wanted to tell you about a talk and worship service demonstration I am giving at the end of this month. Would be delighted if some of you local to Boston could make it. See information below and on the attached flier.
“Orthodox Christian Worship in Five Senses”
Come take a tour of the sensory-rich Eastern Orthodox worship service that enlightens the mind through the heart. Engage with a 2000 year-old Christian tradition that has been called America’s best kept secret.

Interesting how the tour guide season follows the same season as baseball. Just as the World Series concludes, and the off season begins, so too, the tour guiding season for 2013 goes into winter hibernation.
Thanks to all of my friends and colleagues who helped us launch the first official season for Boston Pilgrim Tours. Please pray for us, as we study and plan to return in the spring with even more faith-based offerings for our dear city of Boston.
