On Good Friday of Holy Week members of the Church of Peace participate in a Cross Walk coordinated by Rev. Drew Nagle of Gloria Dei Presbyterian Church. The walk winds through Rock Island, beginning at city hall and ending at Gloria Dei Church.
Here is a snippet of video where a young woman from our church, Marrisa Elliott carries the cross in front of the Church of Peace, which is along the route.
One of the good things about the cross walk is that it is experiential. In church life we often talk about things more than we do them. By participating in this walk we can deepen our experience of Holy Week and participate more fully in the life of Jesus. We intend to join in on Good Friday this year as well. The walk will step off at 8:00 am. at city hall in Rock Island on Friday, April 10, 2009. All are welcome.
