Delaware County's Peace, Justice, & Unity Walk to be held Oct. 7

Released: September 30, 2022

The community is invited to participate in Delaware County's Peace, Justice, & Unity Walk in Media on October 7 hosted by Delaware County Sheriff Jerry Sanders, Media Borough Police Department, and the Second Baptist Church.

Members of Delaware County law enforcement and faith-based organizations are once again participating in the annual National Faith & Blue event, which takes place Oct. 7-10 this year.

Faith & Blue was launched to facilitate safer, stronger, more just, and unified communities by directly enabling local partnerships among law enforcement professionals, residents, businesses, and community groups through the connections of local faith-based organizations. The initiative aims to re-calibrate police-community relations through solutions-focused activities that are organized jointly by faith-based or other community groups and law enforcement agencies.

Delaware County will kick off the weekend with a Peace, Justice, & Unity March on Friday, October 7 at noon. Law enforcement, faith-based organizations, and the community are invited to gather at Second Baptist Church (400. E State St., Media, PA) at noon and walk down State Street to the Delaware County Courthouse. (201 W. Front St., Media PA).
