'We saw his star, and came to worship'

Let us be the mystical body of Christ, visible and vibrant, by walking and praying for unity.  It's up to you:  Set an intention. Plan a route. Walk/pray alone, or gather others to walk and pray with you.  Spend holy time in holy places.  Be a part of a Pilgrim Community.

Sponsored by:
New Mexico Pilgrimage for Unity, a program of the Ecumenical Institute for Ministry
With leadership from the Archdiocese of Santa Fe and the New Mexico Conference of Churches

          The theme for the Week of Prayer for Christian Unity in 2022 was selected by the Middle East Council of Churches and originates from the churches in Lebanon.  Present times in Lebanon are extremely difficult and economically disastrous.  All this combined with the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic have made the situation quite stressful.  The power of prayer in solidarity with those who suffer is a demonstration of Christian Unity and a sign of communion.
          Each year, Christians around the world joyfully recall the prayer of Jesus in the Gospel of John, 17:21, "That they all may be one."  This prayer bears witness to the communion of the Blessed Trinity within the Godhead as extending to the grace of unity and peace among those joined to Christ in baptism.  This grace fulfills the mystery of unity in the Holy Spirit among all who bear the name Christian.
