NEWS RELEASE
SIMCOE COUNTY KAIROS
****************************
The annual Good Friday Walk for Justice, sponsored by the Simcoe County KAIROS community, will still take place this year by moving the event online using ZOOM and broadcast out on Facebook Live.
This year's theme is centred around ecological justice and will be titled Justice for the Earth, the idea being inspired by the efforts of Greta Thunberg and due to the heightened focus on the environment brought about by the current global pandemic.
Viewers will be invited to "walk" virtually to acknowledge and confess humanity's complicity in ecological injustice and covenant to work towards ecological justice as a global village.
The schedule runs approximately 30 minutes and will include reflections, prayers, and singing in unity with folks from a diversity of faith traditions, cultures and backgrounds and others from the local and surrounding community.
Anyone can tune-in to the live video stream at 1 p.m. on Friday, April 10 (and participate in this observance) by going to the group's Facebook page even without the need for a Facebook account.
Simcoe County KAIROS, affiliated with KAIROS Canada, is a community of ordinary Canadians working together in faithful action for ecological justice and human rights. They can be contacted at [email protected].
