Gichitwaa Kateri Catholic Church, Minneapolis issued the following announcement on July 22.
I found this tidbit in an article by Christina Capecchi:
Though many people go on walks, he notes, very few possess “a genius, so to speak, for sauntering.” He goes on to explain the word’s origin. When pilgrims in the Middle Ages were heading to the Holy Land, village people would inquire about their destination. The reply: “a la sainte terre,” French for “to the Holy Land.” And so, the pilgrims became known as “sainte-terrers” — saunterers.
