Jackson, MS Pilgrimage

EDOLA invites you to join a pilgrimage to Jackson, Mississippi—a city that stood at the heart of both the Jim Crow South and the Civil Rights Movement. Together, we’ll journey through our shared history and reflect on what it means for us today as citizens and children of God.

Our pilgrimage includes visits to the Museum of Mississippi History and the Mississippi Civil Rights Museum. We’ll also be welcomed into courageous conversations by the faithful community at St. James Episcopal Church, the home church of our own Bishop Duckworth!

This isn’t just about looking back—it’s about understanding how the past shapes us now and discerning how we can move forward in faith, justice, and love.
