Gathering for Peace

August 17, 2019 @ 6:00 pm - 7:00 pm

Come together as a community to be people of peace in a hurting world. This Saturday, August 17th 6 pm at The Salvation Army, 9050 16th Ave SW.

Violence is unacceptable. Racism and discrimination are ugly aspects of this world that need to be fought against.

We won’t be silent in the light of recent shootings. We don’t have to wait for our elected officials to make change, because the change can start with us right now.

Let’s come together as a community to start the change now.

Some of us need to grieve, some of us need a safe place to share our stories, some of us need an extra dose of hope, and all of us need to generate ideas for how we can move forward offering dignity and respect to all of those in our sphere of influence.

You are invited to come to The Salvation Army Community Center on Saturday August 17 at 6 pm, in a safe space for a meeting of peace, sharing, and visioning for the future.

We are a faith based movement, but no specific spiritual affiliation required. We are all united. All races, religions, beliefs, orientations, and identifications are welcome. We need everyone to make real lasting peace happen. No exclusions. You’re invited and you belong.
