Gaza Ceasefire Pilgrimage Whanganui

Start: Saturday, March 16, 2024 5:00 AM

Together we will walk or roll the length of Gaza - 41km mirroring the journey Gazans are being forced to take to flee bombardment. This is a pilgrimage of solidarity and hope; we journey as witnesses and in love.

Join some or all of the route with us. We will walking along the river from Castlecliff to Upokongaro and back. Along the way we will pause at times for reflection and prayer. Our route is mostly flat and along the river bank path. Some sections will be on roadside footpaths.

This walk is one of 125 Gaza Ceasefire Pilgrimages happening in cities around the world during Lent. Check out the other Aotearoa locations here.

We'll also be raising funds to support the work of the Department of Service to Palestinian Refugees via Christian World Service - a practical way we can help Gazans from afar. Donate here: https://cws.org.nz/donate-to-the-gaza-ceasefire-pilgrimage/
