R2R Joins the Walk of Witness
Routes to Roots’ clients, staff and volunteers participated in Poole’s Walk of Witness on Good Friday. This culminated at Skinner St URC with a short service outside the church, after which all gathered in the hall for tea and hot cross buns.
Afterwards the R2R group joined together in the parlour to hold a short, very moving service remembering our friends who have passed away.
The Walk of Witness regularly takes place in Poole – as in other towns across the UK – and it is encouraged for Christians of different traditions and different denominations to cast their differences aside for a day to take the message of Christianity to the High Street in a special way. Over 200 participated this year with church leaders joined by The Mayor and Mayoress of Poole, Cllr and Mrs Philip Eades.
