MRJR Pilgrimage
Licton Springs Pilgrimage
Sunday, July 20 | 2-4pm | Bethany Green Lake & Licton Springs
Licton Springs is a site that holds cultural significance to Coast Salish peoples across the Puget Sound region since time immemorial, and it is within walking distance of Bethany Green Lake. Join as we prayerfully engage our neighborhood and learn about the springs, the land, and the indigenous communities of this area.
These pilgrimages, hosted by the Ministry of Racial Justice and Reconciliation, are experiences that expand our understanding of our neighborhoods through the story and perspective of indigenous and marginalized communities. We want to see God’s work of justice and reconciliation right where we are. Each pilgrimage includes personal preparation prompts before the trip and reflection prompts afterward as a way of setting intention around the experience.
Adults and children (age dependent on the trip) are welcome! Pilgrimages in parks and neighborhoods include using paved and unpaved paths, up to 3 miles depending on the location.
