Monthly Multifaith Prayers for Peace and Justice
7-7:30pm on 11th of every month
NEXT GATHERING: CANCELED for April
How about attending one of the two April 7 events instead?

Holding on to Humanity: Bereaved Palestinian and Israeli Stories of Grief & Hope (7pm at Stanford Memorial Church)
Peaceful Presence is sometimes hosted in-person, sometimes by Zoom, and sometimes hybrid (with both options - to join in person or via Zoom). Watch for updates!
Multifaith Voices for Peace and Justice coordinates “Peaceful Presence” gatherings, a monthly prayer service on the evening of the 11th of each month, offering a time of quiet multifaith prayers for peace and justice and strength for the journey. Each gathering is hosted by a different local faith community, includes contributions from diverse faith traditions, and has its own format and theme.
All are welcome: those of all faith traditions and of no defined faith, those who are suffering at the hands of their own government, those who need a pause in the midst of intensive work on behalf of others, and all who would like to pray with others for the well-being of all. The prayer time will include elements from several religious traditions.
Upcoming:
CANCELED: Friday, April 11 due to confluence of religious events around this date
Sunday, May 11 - tba
Wednesday, June 11 - Unitarian Universalist Church of Palo Alto
