Participate in the SCII Cluster Lenten Prayer Walk

Come and join with others in the final week of Lent to pray together. The walk will begin at Holliday Park Nature Center (6363 Spring Mill Road, Indianapolis IN) on Sunday, April 9, from 1:30-4:00 p.m. When we pray together God stirs us to take our prayers beyond the walls of our church buildings. The walk begins at the Holliday Park Nature Center where you will join with a small group of walkers. Four stations will be set up on an easily walkable path to stop and share prayers for the work of our church in this world. Return to the Nature Center for light refreshments and fellowship. Join when you can! Small groups will be gathering and walking throughout the afternoon. This event is organized by the SCII Cluster and includes the following churches: Abundant Harvest, Bethel, Broad Ripple, Church of the Saviour, East 10th Street, Horizons of Faith, Meridian, Union Chapel, and University UMC. For more information, contact Jody Gifford at [email protected].
