On a recent blustery Sunday morning, 20+ parishioners gathered for a high-energy Solidarity Walk in the St. Joan of Arc neighborhood with several stops for reflection and prayer. We lifted up our 25 year relationship with our Sister Parish in Tierra Nueva Dos (TNII) in Guatemala, and we carried a banner covered with parishioners’ signatures and well-wishes collected after both masses.

Our time together was filled with remembrances of our TNII family, mindful discussions about our relationship’s impact on our faith, our lives and our commitment to justice, and joyful songs with beautiful instrumental accompaniment. After the Walk, we warmed up in the Welcome Center with food and fellowship. Thanks to all who participated!
