Walk for Peace: The Bloomington Multi-Faith Alliance invites community members to a silent vigil walk for peace in Palestine and Israel on Sunday, October 6th at 6pm.
As the anniversary of the beginning of the current conflict nears, we will walk together with peace as our intention and with hope for healing in our community and throughout the world. Those who wish to keep watch with us are invited to bring your own candle or lantern, but, please, no slogans or signs. We will walk in silence along the B-Line Trail, beginning at the Switchyard Park Pavilion.
As a community, we recognize the difficulty of producing a unified statement that could begin to create the space for reconciliation, yet we wish to use our action to articulate a desire to remain together as people of faith and a diverse community committed to peace and conflict transformation.
