Two separate Camino pilgrimages squeezed into just over 2 weeks, catering to both the laity and the religious enabled a total of 45 pilgrims to cover 200 miles and reach Santiago de Compostela. The undertaking caused quite a spectacle.

And the devil took Jesus to Jerusalem and set him on the pinnacle of the temple and said to him, ‘If you are the Son of God, throw yourself down from here, for it is written, “He will command his angels concerning you, to guard you”, and “On their hands they will bear you up, lest you strike your foot against a stone.”’ And Jesus answered him, ‘It is said, “You shall not put the Lord your God to the test.”’

"Can a blind person guide a blind person? Will not both fall into a pit?"
As we arrive at Quinquagesima Sunday, the final step before entering Lent, the Church presents us with a Gospel that urges self-examination. Jesus warns against hypocrisy, calling out the tendency to notice the speck in our brother’s eye while ignoring the beam in our own. He reminds us that a good tree bears good fruit, and a person’s heart is revealed by their words and actions. The message is clear: before we seek to correct others, we must first allow God to purify our own hearts. True discipleship begins with humility, recognising our need for God’s grace before we presume to lead or correct others.
Quinquagesima calls us to reflect: Are we truly seeing with the eyes of Christ, or are we blinded by pride, judgment, or self-righteousness? As Lent approaches, this Gospel invites us to take stock of our spiritual lives, asking God to remove the beams from our own eyes so that we may see clearly. The call to bear good fruit is not about outward appearances but about deep interior conversion. May we enter this coming season with hearts open to transformation, seeking not to condemn but to be healed, so that we may lead others to Christ with true clarity and love.
