A Holy Land Pilgrimage in 2011

Dean Munroe and Fr. Len Cowan of the
Church of the Nativity, Northboro, will
lead a pilgrimage to the Holy Land from
January 1st through January 12th.


A Reconciliation Pilgrimage to the Holy Land is set for January 1-12, 2011. This pilgrimage
is being offered to all members and friends of the Diocese. It will be led by the Very Rev. James
Munroe, Dean of Christ Church Cathedral in Springfield, and the Rev. Len Cowan, Rector of
the Church of the Nativity in Northboro.
The pilgrimage has two purposes. First, it will be an exploration into the land where Jesus
walked. We will visit all the places that framed his earthly life and ministry, from a cave in
Bethlehem to an empty tomb in Jerusalem. We will be in Bethlehem on Christmas Day, as it is
celebrated by many Orthodox churches. Second, the pilgrimage will be an exploration into the
conflicts between Israelis and Palestinians today, with an emphasis on special individuals and
groups that are working toward reconciliation and peace. We will meet living examples of
Psalm 85:10 – “Righteousness and peace will kiss each other.”
Dean Munroe and Fr. Cowan have led this pilgrimage before, and they are excited to be able
to offer it again. For further information and to register, please call Dean Munroe (413-736-
2742) or email him at dean.javanet@rcn.com - or call Fr. Cowan (508-393-3146) or email him at
info@churchofthenativity.org.
