Echuca and Moama’s church communities combined resources on Good Friday to present a united front during a Walk of Witness ceremony in Hare St.
The walk started at the Hare St Uniting Church and followed a route to the Anglican Church and Catholic Church before returning to its starting point.
Reverend Michele Lees said the event involved several other churches and had become popular since it was reintroduced to the community last year.
“It involves a lot of the Echuca-Moama church communities, including Anglican, Baptist, Epicentre, Catholic and Salvation Army,” Reverend Lees said.
She said it was the single biggest gathering of the church communities for the year.
“It is one of the few really big things we do.
“Toward Christmas we get together again to do something, but the Walk of Witness is a significant event for the community,” she said.
Reverend Lees and another volunteer combined to revive the event last year, with the support of the Echuca-Moama Ministers’ Association.
The walk replicated the Stations of the Cross of Jesus, the journey and events that occurred on the day Jesus was crucified.
Echuca-Moama Salvation Army’s Sonia Edwards led the service, which has musical support from Donovan Jasper, and Reverend Phil Zamagias also gave a service with Reverend Lees at the shared event.
