From 11am, congregation from local Christian churches gathered at the Echuca Moama Uniting Church, beginning a day of reflection and unity.
Attendees participated in Bible readings, prayers and songs as they moved between the Uniting, Christ Church Anglican and St Mary’s churches.
They carried a wooden cross with them, following the path Jesus is said to have taken before his crucifixion.
The Riv’s photographer Jordan Townrow was there to document the gathering.
