Gaza Ceasefire Pilgrimage – Saskatoon event

Recurring event see all

March 24, 2024 @ 2:00 pm 5:30 pm

Join in a global movement of prayerful pilgrimage in solidarity with the people of Gaza and all those caught in violence since October 7. During the Christian season of Lent, people of peace are mapping the 42 km length of Gaza in their own cities, towns, and rural places as part of the Gaza Ceasefire Pilgrimage.

Over two days, March 23-24, we will walk in prayer for peace, specifically calling for:

  • an enduring ceasefire, 
  • immediate humanitarian aid, 
  • the release of all Israeli and Palestinian captives,
  • and an end to the occupation.  

While this pilgrimage is led and shaped by members of the Christian tradition, we gladly welcome people of peace from other faith traditions, or no faith, to join us in this walk for peace.
