GATHER for PEACE - Sunday Oct. 22, 2023 @ Edmonton City Hall

 

🕊 Gather for Peace

Sunday, Oct. 22, 2023 

Time: 7:00 pm to 8 pm

Location: South Plaza, Edmonton City Hall

 

🌿 Local peace activists will Gather for Peace on Sunday, Oct. 22, 2023 for a one-hour of silence. This is an opportunity for people of all faiths and nationalities to gather to demand peace without choosing a side. Peace is a win for everyone. Peace starts with ceasefires in Palestine/Israel and Ukraine/Russia.

 

🕯 “I stand in silence for a world without violence”, says co-organizer Netta Phillet. We will stand in silence with the glowing hope symbolized by our candles. We ask people to bring their candles, their hopes, their signs (with the caveat that the signs are about peace and not supportive of one side or the other), etc.

 

>>> Please DO NOT bring flags. We do not want this to evolve into another crowd of people brandishing their flags. This is a time to call for the end of conflict. A time to Gather for Peace. Dress warm because you will be standing/sitting for an hour. –
