CROSSwalk Vigil – April 2

Since September 2008, 298 children and youth have been killed by violence.
Join concerned citizens from across our city in a 4-mile Holy Week procession to memorialize murdered children and to commit together to end this violence.

 

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.

Urban Dolorosa means “The Sorrowing City.” We seek to raise awareness about the epidemic of youth violence in our city and to recruit and train clergy and pastoral care professionals to minister to families and youth traumatized by violence.
