Mountain Cathedrals + SJ Youth Group August Moonlight Hike - Tecolote Peak

The firmament is as present now as it was in Biblical times, although it seems we pay far less attention to it now. Let us set aside an evening to gaze at it and wonder, share stories about it, contemplate Scripture, share Communion, and watch the moonrise from Tecolote Peak (near the base of the Sandia Ski Area).
Meet at the St. John's UMC (Albuquerque) east parking lot at 6:45 p.m., or at the trailhead (Google Maps: Tecolote Trailhead) at 7:30. Plan to be back at the parking area by 9:45 and St. John's by 10:15. The hike is easy to moderate (2.4 miles, 318 feet elevation gain), but it includes some rocky trail. Bring headlamps/flashlights, a snack, a parka, stories, and enthusiasm!
Please join us for this hike of meditation, wilderness, and time apart from our normal schedules.
