From Atlanta-
Several members of the Episcopal Diocese of Atlanta will participate in a pilgrimage in remembrance of people killed during the civil rights struggle on Aug. 13 in Hayneville, Ala.
The group will join other Episcopalians from Georgia and Alabama during the annual Jonathan Daniels and the Martyrs of Alabama Pilgrimage. Local involvement is being aided by the Diocese of Atlanta Commission on Anti-Racism. Daniels was an Episcopal seminarian from New England who was shot and killed in Hayneville in 1965 during the civil rights movement.
The pilgrimage will end with a "Service of Remembrance, Repentance and Reconciliation".
Those interested in participating should contact Jenna Strizak by July 29 at 732-221-7285 or jennafaith@gmail.com.
