THE RICHMOND SLAVE TRAIL WALK: A

Catholic Reflection On That City’s History - Saturday, September 29, 2012 - 9:00 a.m.

-12:00 noon. The walk begins at St. Paul’s Catholic Church. It is a walking trail that

chronicles the history of the trade of enslaved

people from Africa to Virginia until 1775, and away from Virginia, especially Richmond, to other locations

in the Americas until 1865. This event is co-sponsored by Office of Justice & Peace, Office for Black Catholics, and

Pax Christi Richmond. For more info, contact Jay Brown at 804-545-5975 or Michael Stone at 804-205-7832. A bus will

take participants between stops, but everyone must be able

to walk at least one mile over uneven ground. Stops include Manchester Docks, major slave trade port in Richmond,

Lumpkin’s Jail where enslaved families were torn apart, and Negro Burial Ground where many slaves were executed.

Maps to St. Paul’s can be obtained from the parish office.

In the Diocese of Richmond, preparation for First

Reconciliation (Penance) and First Eucharist (Communion) typically takes place in the second grade or

above. Preparation for the Sacrament of Confirmation typically takes place in the 10th grade or above. Both

preparation programs will be beginning soon. If you have

a child who may be preparing for sacraments this year, you should register today for Generations of Faith (if you haven’t done so already). To do so now, go to www.sttheresechesva.org. You can register online

there, as well as see the schedules for sacramental preparation. We’re very excited about the response to this

year’s Christian Formation program, which will be focusing

on Catholic Social Teaching. This year’s Intergenerational Gatherings will be conducted in one session each month,

giving us an opportunity to learn together as community. Everyone is welcome! To learn more, and to

register before the upcoming deadline, go to

www.sttheresechesva.org.
