The
Longest Walk 2
is an extraordinary grassroots effort on a national
level to bring attention to the environmental
disharmony of Mother Earth.
It is a peaceful, spiritual effort to engage with
the public about restoring harmony with the
environment by leading an initiative to clean up the
lands surrounding our highways.
We take up this task to walk in a manner
befitting our nations. We shall walk for the Seventh
Generation, for peace, for justice, for healing of
Mother Earth, and for the healing of our people
suffering from diabetes, heart conditions, and other
diseases.
The walkers will arrive at Pleasant Heights Community
of Christ (4341 Blue Ridge Blvd., Kansas City MO) on
May 2, 2008 from 3-5 p.m. There will be a blessing
of the Osage Trace and the Tree of Peace at the
Community of Christ Temple from 5-7 p.m.
If you would like to support our brothers and sisters
on their sacred walk, please see the following list of
items needed. (By the time they reach the Pleasant
Heights church, they will have come approximately
halfway to Washington D.C. and will need several items.)
