Inner City Pilgrimage


At the half way point of City House’s “Will You Drink From This Cup?” we lead our learners on an inner city pilgrimage for a day. This time, like many others, we visited Reentry Metro, a halfway house for women coming out of prison, and Dorothy Day, a drop in homeless shelter in downtown St. Paul.

As in the past, this turns out to be one of the most powerful experiences of the entire program.  As one of our learners said when we were done, “On a scale of 1 – 10, I give this experience a “12″.

    You can tell by these pictures that it was a thoughtful day. I really learned a lot from this experience. When we have the opportunity to be with people who have been marginalized we open ourselves up to grow in spirit.

    It was definitely a thoughtful day. Much to reflect upon. Much that God did in all of us and worth noticing.
