THE WAYFARERS PASSAGE, (the second green menu selection) introduces the seven wayƒarers, provides brief family history for each and then explains how and why each chooses to become a wayƒarer.
This web site and the books to follow, contain the stories of each of the seven wayƒarers who separately embark upon a quest to find the meaning of life. Each choose to journey afield as thru hikers afoot upon the Appalachian Trail.
Nearing the end of their 2000 mile wrest, while deep in the Maine wilderness, each arrive to pass the night together at Sabbath Day Pond. That encounter became the start of the stories which follow.
Below is a list of Episodes of TWJ, and the wayƒarer who provides each story.

THE JOURNEY PASSAGE, (the forth green menu selection) provides Journey On information of the seven journeys taken individually by each of the seven wayƒarers as each searches for the Truth.
The seven wayƒarers take Journeys in:
Episode One Journeys to Katahdin and Zion
Episode Two Journey to L'Acadie
Episode Three Journey to Lenapehoking
Episode Four Journey to Mariposa
Episode Five Journey to Sulphur Springs
Episode Six Journey to Bear Lake
Episode Seven The Return to Sabbath Day Pond
Each of the seven wayƒarers make their way to begin a journey upon the Appalachian Trail, but all find that completing this 2000 mile foot path is not the end of their personal journey but must need continue to find the answers to their questions.
In fact, one of the struggles that a wayƒarer often faces throughout his life is the continuing need to Journey On.

THE BURDEN PASSAGE, (the fifth green menu selection) describes all those things that a wayƒarer possesses and carries in his life journey. Often, the very things that one carries is that which serves to cover, ensconce, protect and sustain a wayƒarer during the journey on.
This primarily focus of this passage is to define what
need level is and to help those who wish to walk as a wayƒarer learn why it is urgent to acquire this level of existance in life during these last day of this system of things.
For a wayƒarer to acquire need level, he should have as his goal to reduce the number of items that he carries within the burden to five, which is the absolute minimum. Although the absolute minimum may never be attained by most of those who try, it should always remain the goal of acquisition.
The
Journal, Not Included in the Five Essential Needs
Still, a bound paper journal, also known as a quire is the instrument of choice for a wayƒarer traveling aƒoot, primarily because it requires neither batteries, signal, nor any other technology, only a quill to write with.
Most all wayƒarers oftentimes refer to their Bible as a Journal and needless to say, their Bible is included within the plastic zip bag with the quire. For these, the number of essential needs become Six in number.
The TWJ
Online Journal Index Page
This online journal index page has introductory comments and links to each of the twelve Quires and a Chapter Index with dates covered.
A wayƒarer spends his retirement traveling, referred to by some as snowbirding, and along the way he meets many people, sees many interesting things and to keep it fresh to his memory, he writes an online journal and includes a photo gallery.
This online journal consists of Seven Passages with Twelve Quires.

"It has long been my desire and hope that someone may happen upon this website and read enough of my writings to learn about the Way of Holiness that I have come to know and love. Yes, if just one person comes to the brotherhood of the wayƒarers because of my words, then, I must give praise and glory to the most high God for allowing me to use my time and efforts in this way." The Founder
The
Raiment, The First of the Five Needs (Future Page)
The Raiment is what a wayƒarer wears, his boots, clothing, and hat. A wayƒarer, especially when living and traveling outdoors, always carries in his burden clothing appropriate both for the weather and for the season.
The
Scrip, The Second of the Five Needs
The scrip is a bag supported from the shoulders that a wayƒarer uses to carry food and gear during the journey on.
The
Gear. The absolute short list for backpacking gear. When it comes to backpacking, it is entirely about the content within the scrip that is to indicate whether a person is a weekend warrior or a thru hiker.
To Go Bag. We must needs provide for ourself in an emergency, and this is a comprehensive list of what one wayƒare uses for his to go bag.
The
Shelter. The Third of the Five Needs
The type of shelter a wayƒarer chooses is another totally personal choice that must be made. This choice could have the wayƒarer carrying the shelter (a tent) on the back, or living in a place that requires grass mowing, or there may be need to use a wheeled vehicle as one′s home. A ancient wayƒarer once said about this matter, Choose wisely my son.
The Shelters Carried on the
Back.
The Shelters Requiring Grass
Mowing.
The Shelters With Doors and
Wheels.
The
Sleeping Bag. The Forth of the Five Needs
A Wayƒarer when traveling long distances upon the mountain paths during three or four seasons demands that the sleeping bag be quite versatile. It must needs keep the sleeper warm during below freezing nights and comfortable during those sultry nights in August.
Sometimes, there is need to supplement your sleeping bag. The discussion on this page discloses how the wayƒarer learned at a very young age an important life lesson.
The
Sustenance. The Fifth of the Five Needs
Forth of ten in the list of backpacking
gear, Third of the seven life
steps on the Real Way, but first on the path to cure diseases, gain longevity of life, and gain a vital healthy body. Yes, proper nutrition from our sustenance is an all important concern in the life of a wayƒarer.
The
Cook Pot, is where a wayƒarer shares his recipes in three food categories:
1.
Backpacking recipes, which he uses when afoot.
2.
Classical recipes, which have proven good for many years.
3.
Living Food recipes, which help cure modern diseases.
The Additional Needs of some Wayƒarers
Yes, a wayƒarer must needs provide his way in this world and he must work hard to earn the money necessary to buy the above five needs for the steps on the way. A wayƒarer can do several things including having a store, selling other possessions no longed needed or even work at a job.
A wayƒarer sometimes has things he either wants to share or that he no longer needs and this is one of the venues that is used to make it available to others.
Despite being retired, a wayƒarer is sometimes asked to help on a job.
