The Way Bus Tour to Visit Archdiocese of Atlanta
Martin Sheen and Emilio Estevez will stop at Chancery to Talk about their new film, The Way
***Tuesday, September 27th ***

WHAT: The Way bus tour will roll into the Archdiocese of Atlanta to greet the priests, staff, and other distinguished guests as part of a multi-city tour promoting their new film, The Way, written and directed by Emilio Estevez and starring Martin Sheen. The Archdiocese of Atlanta will host the Catholic actors and hear about the plans for the new film.

The Way is a powerful and inspirational story about an American doctor and father (Martin Sheen) who travel to France to collect the remains of his adult son (played by Emilio Estevez), killed while walking The Camino de Santiago, also known as The Way of Saint James. Rather than return home, he embarks on a life-altering pilgrimage to honor his son's desire to finish the journey.
