We will begin at St. Peter Catholic Church where local interfaith leaders and musicians will inspire us with their words and songs. Next, we will take a processional walk together to the grounds of the National Civil Rights Museum where children of Memphis will reveal their dreams; a local faith leader will share an expression of regret and a promise; a backdrop of song by a children’s choir. Please join us and bring your family and friends.

EVENTS
the chosen APRIL 7th - 7PM - RM 108 Viewings are OPEN TO ALL! The Chosen is a TV drama based on the life of Jesus of Nazareth. What makes this series attractive (for some) is the character backgrounds concerning those who encounter Christ, and the palpable way in which their lives are transformed. Hosted by the St. Joseph Men's Group,
each viewing will be followed by discussion, then ending in prayer. Please attend, and allow these viewings to be a vehicle for reflecting on how Jesus Christ continues to transform our own lives.
