2025 SFSAZ Conference

Pilgrimage: seeing the sacred as we walk with Jesus

Since ancient times individuals have followed their hearts on the spiritual practice of pilgrimage. They have traveled together and alone on sacred journeys near and far from their homes, for long periods of time or just a day. Some might even refer to their life as a journey of pilgrimage. Whatever the definition, we believe that there is something sacred to be discovered and transformation to embody on whatever journey you are traveling. 

As we consider our life in Christ as pilgrimage, Matt and Julie will be sharing around themes that give us context and encouragement for this life. Matt will look at resting in our identity as well as living out of our baptism into Christ. Julie will look at pilgrimage in the early church, people and places.

Join us for a time of encountering the sacred as we walk with Jesus.

Matt and Julie Canlis will be our plenary speakers with breakout sessions by SFSAZ staff and friends.

February 6 – 6:00p-9p
