Walk for a Cause
Standing against Violence towards Women
The Uniting Churches of the Mornington Peninsula Port Phillip region are collaborating to walk with their local communities in a 2 day Walk of Awareness.
Fundraising in support of women who have suffered domestic violence.
DATE:
NOV 3 - 4, 2023
TRAIL LENGTH:
48 KILOMETERS
ROUTE:
95% “OFF-ROAD”
On behalf of the congregations of Mt Eliza Village Church, St Marks Uniting Church Mornington, Mt Martha Uniting Church and Dromana/Rosebud Uniting Church we invite you, your family, friends and neighbours
to join us for this significant event.
Let’s stand together and #ChangeTheStory for Women and Girls to live a Life Free from violence.
The Walk will cover 48 kilometres over 2 days, walking the length of the Peninsula from the Mt Eliza Village Church to Point Nepean.
The route will be 95% “off road” linking some well known and lesser known Peninsula and neighbourhood trails. We will pause for quiet reflection as we pass each church community who will host both refreshments and a “Prayer Point”.
You are invited to join us for the entire 48kms or to walk shorter distances and attend the Reflection Points along the way.
The Trail takes in some breathtaking Peninsula scenery and ends with the view of Port Phillip Bay from Police Point/Point Nepean before returning home.
All proceeds from Walk For A Cause will go to the "Tessa Jetson Foundation" providing retreats for Women who have suffered violence.
