Echoes’ yearly Easter Walk wanders through downtown Bellingham honoring the stories of this place along Whatcom Creek that cradles Bellingham and the ancient stories of Jesus and his life and death and resurrection.
Starting @ City Hall, we’ll stop at several locations en route to Maritime Heritage Park along Whatcom Creek. At each stop we’ll read some of the Biblical story of the arrest, death, and return of Jesus, and provide a bridge from our own local history of the land we stand on and share. We’ll traverse paths, stairs, bridges and water ways before gathering around the Lummi-made totem pole of Salmon Woman to listen to this Coast Salish creation story and reminder that we are to protect Salmon woman’s children.
As it is Easter and we are reminded of the infinite possibilities that are presented on that day, we will share communion at the fish hatchery and bless the new life that is all around us and within us.
Around 3:45pm, following the Easter Walk Wild Church, we’ll meander to Structures Old Town for some light food and beverages and some time for Easter fellowship together! https://www.structuresbrewing.com/locations/holly-street
All Are Welcome to wander and to reconnect this Easter.
Email Pastor Emma with any questions or to let us know you'll be walking with us: emma@echoesbellingham.org
We’ll begin at Bellingham City Hall 210 Lottie Street (parking is free on Sundays) and end at Maritime Heritage Park 500 W Holly St.
Stay tuned for more details.
