    I found this initiative extremely puzzling– I have done 8 Caminos since 2000 and have no idea how anyone could seriously believe that non-RC Christians outnumber RCs. I would have to ask that this figure be substantiated. As well, the Cathedral has assigned one of its chapels for the use of Anglican pilgrims and many clergy, including at least two Church of England bishops, have celebrated there.
