South Tacoma Cross Walk

This will be our 12th year walking the community, remembering victims of violence and reclaiming places of hurt as places of hope.  That's what we do.  Will you join us again this year?  If so, meet at Manitou Park Presbyterian Church (6613 S. Cheyenne) on Thursday, March 28th at 5:00. 

Join us for the entire walk, part or even one stop.  We’ve listed the times so you’ll know where we plan to be.  At each stop we will offer a brief recounting of the person, the nature of the violence and a prayer.  We can not do anything to bring them back, but we can do something to honor their life and work to end violence in the future. Hang around afterwards for communion and supper.
