April 6 Tip: Take part in this afternoon's "Rally for Compassion, Peace and Healing"

Take part in this afternoon's "Rally for Compassion, Peace and Healing"

(The April 6 Compassionate Living Tip from Interfaith Paths to Peace)

Join us for a special 30 minute gathering at 3:30 pm on Sunday, April 6
 on the Big Four Bridge in response to the events that occurred in our city on Saturday, March 22.


Many of us feel grief, anger, fear and sadness over the violent events of March 22. We struggle to find a way to express our feelings.

We invite everyone to take part in an event at which we will:

  • Express our grief over what happened in our streets on March 22,  
  • Demonstrate our compassion and support for those who were injured and terrorized,  
  • Offer our gratitude to the gentleman who came to the aid of a young woman who was under attack (and then was beaten himself), and to others who tried to stop the violence,  
  • Give voice to our hopes for peace,  
  • Seek healing for what has happend
  • Renew our commitment to non-violence.  
This brief event will include readings, prayers and music.

Those attending will be invited 
to take a vow of non-violence

Please plan to join us. This event is free and open to the public.
