One of the tenets of Christ City Church is that place matters. We want to be alert to the ways that the history of a place shapes the contemporary landscape socially as well as spiritually. To that end, Christ City is joining with Coracle - an organization committed to spiritual formation and justice - to spend the day understanding the history of racial justice and activism in Arlington. 

The pilgrimage will be a combo bus and walking tour of historic Arlington.  The sites we’ll visit include:  the original DC boundary stone, Arlington House, site of sit-ins and other desegregation activism. The tour will focus on the history of displacement of residents of color during DC development and recent historical activism.  

The event is free as Christ City has underwritten a portion of this event for CCCers to attend, but you are invited to make a donation to Coracle when you register at go.ChristCityDC.org/Arlington.
