Along the pilgrimage journey, participants will be invited to stop at 12 stations, to read scripture and experience the text in the context of our own lives and world. Stations will include Jesus' final teachings, his prayers in Gethsemane, the road to Golgotha, his death, and his resurrection. Pilgrims on the journey will also be invited to share in the sacraments of baptism and communion.
Stations along the journey have been designed by church members. The pilgrimage is designed to connect with people who are new to the Christian stories, as well as life-long people of faith. It is an opportunity to engage and experience the story anew this year. |

Easter Vigil
Prayer Pilgrimage
invites you to a powerful encounter with the stories of Holy Week and Easter. At this self-guided, interactive journey participants are invited to come experience the stories of Holy Week. Hear Jesus’ final parables. Share in his prayers. Warm yourself by the fire where Peter denied knowing Jesus. Walk the path toward crucifixion, and find yourself blessed by resurrection.
The self-guided journey begins in the Trotter Chapel any time between 7:30 and 9 p.m. on Easter Eve, March 22, 2008. Persons can follow one of two guides on the path: one for young children and families and another for adults. The journey will be indoors and out, and all paths are wheelchair accessible. Rev. Molly Vetter and Rev. Karen Ristine invite everyone to come join in this journey.
