The 4th Annual Monumental Missions Walk (MMW), sponsored by the Metropolitan DC Orthodox Christian Mission and Outreach Committee will take place on Saturday, October 15th, 2016 from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. on the National Mall in Washington, D.C.. The length of the walk is approximately 3 miles, walked at a leisurely pace and led by a MMW guide, with frequent stops at various monuments/landmarks along the way. The guide will discuss the historical, and spiritual, significance of the monument and offer a prayer for those whom the monument represents. At this year's walk, walkers will meet at the MMW white tent on the National Mall between 3rd & 4th Streets, near the American Indian Museum. From there, groups of approximately ten walkers will proceed on their guided tour to the monuments listed below and return to the tent.
