Good Friday Silent Walk for Peace set for April 15
LITTLE FALLS — The Franciscan Sisters of Little Falls will have a Good Friday Silent Walk for Peace at 9:30 a.m. April 15.
After gathering outside the west entrance at St. Francis Convent, participants will walk together in a silent procession, stopping to pray at various designated places throughout Little Falls, including St. Gabriel’s Hospital, Morrison County Jail and Government Center, Veterans Memorial, Maple Island Park and a few other locations. The procession will be led by a person carrying a cross. Bringing the cross and our prayers to various places in our community reminds us of the ways Jesus is always with us, especially in our joys and sufferings. Participants can take turns carrying the cross and leading the procession. The walk concludes back at the convent at about 11 a.m.
In the event of bad weather, this event will be canceled.
