Led by New Unity’s inclusive minister Adam Slate and other faith leaders and communities, the vigil will also hold space to acknowledge the spiritual and moral failings that have underpinned policies that have driven, enabled, and ignored the ongoing genocide in Gaza.
The vigil will also hold a place for hope for the current ceasefire and future work required to heal the region.
The vigil will take place on the pavement outside the Meeting House, beginning at 6pm on Sunday 2nd with opening welcomes, prayers, song, and silence, led by faith leaders.
Afterwards, faith communities will lead the vigil in one-hour blocks according to their spiritual conscience and religious tradition. The event will take place predominantly outdoors in front of the Newington Green Meeting House. It will continue overnight, indoors. Names of killed civilians will be read from lists, while there will be opportunity to include prayer, song or unamplified music.
