Have you heard of “CROSSwalk”???
CROSSwalk is a four-mile Holy Week procession across the heart of the city to remember murdered youth and connect participants with opportunities to protect children, mitigate violence and support families struggling with these issues. CROSSwalk is not a protest march. It is a vigil, one tied directly to follow-up action.
CROSSwalk will take place on Monday, April 2, beginning at 5:30 p.m. at St. James Cathedral (Huron and Wabash). It will travel through the Loop to a stop at Daley Plaza (Washington and Dearborn), proceed to Old St. Patrick’s Church (Adams and Des Plaines) and end at the lawn outside Stroger Hospital. Participants are welcome to walk the entire route, walk part of it, or simply join us for short programs at any of the stops along the way. Buses will also be available to help transport people from place to place.
AND THIS YEAR, UNIVERSITY CHURCH IS AN OFFICIAL PARTNER!!! That means we’re going!
