In 2024, St. Thomas Episcopal Church sponsored an Interfaith Vigil for Peace. Leaders from Christian, Jewish, Baha’i, Jain, Buddhist, and Ukrainian Catholic faith traditions participated in the moving service of scripture, prayer, poetry, and music.
Our world seems broken with war, hatred, violence, racism, poverty, and so much more strife. The Peace Vigil serves as a way for our community to gather together to promote hope and love across all faiths.
We hope that our small community efforts will inspire others in larger, global communities. For more information, please contact Rosetta Bacon at rosettabacon@gmail.com.
