What would motivate you to walk 1000 km? A diverse group of pilgrims is doing just that for love of God and in preparation for the 49th International Eucharistic Congress, to be held in Quebec City in June 2008. Carrying the Ark of the New Covenant, a symbolic religious artifact, the portageurs proceed along a historic path from Midland to Quebec City. Their inspiring and arduous journey is chronicled in 64 Days with the Ark, a new reality-talk show series exclusive to Salt + Light Television. As the pilgrims complete march onward to Quebec, follow their journey on Salt + Light every Friday at 8pm.
