Learn together how to walk in solidarity

Just Peace Pilgrimage

“Pilgrims return home as new people. Changed by their journeys, they change the world where they live.”*

Mennonite Mission Network invites you on a pilgrimage that explores what God is doing to bring about justice and peace in the world and ways in which we can participate. Join us as we learn together how to walk in solidarity and appreciation of life. 

Join a pilgrimage with your congregation or group. If you don’t have a group that can go, check with us for ways you too can participate.

Pilgrimages assume a different posture.

The idea of a pilgrimage has a strong foundation within Christian scriptures. In addition to numerous physical journeys and trials, fifteen of the Psalms were written specifically about pilgrimage to Jerusalem (Psalm 120-134).

“Pilgrims are slowly confronted by a different world that begins to interrupt “their own.”*

*From “Reconciling All Things” by Emmanuel Katongole and Chris Rice, 2008.

Solidarity Scholarship Fund

The Solidarity Fund aims to foster equitable learning and service opportunities by addressing barriers for individuals who have financial need and are also from communities most impacted by a history of systemic oppression and injustice. Broadening the demographic profiles of our participants increases the likelihood of a richer cultural experience for all participants.

When funds allow, White allies committed to advancing racial and social justice with a financial need may also be considered.
