Mennonite Mission Network now scheduling autumn Just Peace Pilgrimages

Just Peace Pilgrimage
During an April 2023 Civil Rights Pilgrimage
Jane Morrow

Jane Morrow is a writer for Mennonite Mission Network.

Mennonite Mission Network is scheduling trips for groups and individuals to participate in new educational, eight- to 10-day pilgrimages in the United States, during which they will explore what God is doing to bring about justice and peace and ways to participate in such movements. 

Mission Network invites your family, friends, Bible study class and youth group to join in, to learn together how to walk in solidarity and appreciation of life.

Cost for the pilgrimages varies based on the size of the group and length of the tour, and includes orientation activities, travel during the pilgrimage, lodging, food and admission tickets.

"Pilgrims return home as new people. Changed by their journeys, they change the world where they live."*

Autumn 2023 Just Peace Pilgrimage

Christ at the Borders Pilgrimage

While at the United States-Mexico border, we seek to better understand the realities and implications of migration, including the causes and how churches or communities of faith are responding.

Racial Justice Pilgrimage

Explore the history, significance and ongoing implications of the civil rights struggle in the United States.

Chapter 1:
United States Civil Rights Pilgrimage

Learn about the struggle for dignity and humanity from museums, significant places and powerful memorials in Tennessee, Georgia, and more.

Three additional Racial Justice Pilgrimage chapters are being organized, and registration for those will begin in summer 2024.
