Christian Peace Witness for Iraq

This is apparently what my son, Isaac, and his friends are attending this weekend. This is not my bag, but I admire those who are trying to do something. For more information, or if you would like to participate, go HERE.

3, 500 Christian Leaders from 48 States to Protest War at National Cathedral, Risk Arrest at White House

Tele-press conference Thursday, Event on Friday

Christian Peace Witness for Iraq will begin with a worship service on Friday, March 16 at Washington National Cathedral to be attended by more than 3,500 Christians from 48 states, followed by a candlelight procession through the center of our nation’s capital to the White House, where thousands of Christians will surround the White House bearing the light of peace, and 700 will risk arrest by remaining in prayer in front of the White House. The service begins at 7 p.m., and the White House vigil will begin at 10:30 p.m. It will be the largest Christian peace demonstration, as well as the largest single civil disobedience action at the White House, since the beginning of the Iraq war four years ago.
