Montgomery Pilgrimage
Friday, April 12
Contact Jettye Davis at jettye@hotmail.com
Lenten tour of the Chapel at St. John’s Episcopal Church in Montgomery to experience the Stations of the Cross painted by Camilla Brunschyler, an Alabama artist and teacher. Her work, which is in private collections throughout the U.S., stays true to her basic need to express meaning through symbolic and iconic imagery. The Stations of the Cross were created for St John’s over a two year period. She will meet with us to share her vision behind this moving series. After the Chapel, we will walk the labyrinth in quite reflection, and then join together for a silent lunch in their great hall, eating together with intention. We will then proceed to The National Memorial for Peace and Justice, and then back to Birmingham. You are encouraged to bring a journal to keep your thoughts, where at a later date we may meet again to share our experiences.
Our pilgrimage will be on Friday, April 12. We will depart the church at 9:30 a.m. and depart Montgomery at 3:00 p.m. You will want to bring a journal, bag lunch, water, and comfortable shoes. We will be carpooling. For more information or to sign up email Jettye Davis.
