Pax Christi Summit 1st Peace Vigil Well Attended

The entire Pax Christi Summit Chapter would like thank you everyone who came this past Tuesday. We would also like to thank all of you who helped spread the word about our vigil and our purpose as an organization.

We had about 30 people join us at the Rosary Shrine to offer our prayers for peace and we raised $120 for the Domincan Nuns of Summit who so graciously allowed us to hold our service at the shrine. We were also joined by a photographer from the Star Ledger and an article about the vigil and Pax Christi was featured on the front page of the Union County section of the paper today under the headline "A Prayer to Give Peace a Chance; Vigil Stretches to Summit; 250 Chapters of Pax Christi Dennounce War."

We are just getting started there are many more prayers to be offered and Congressmen, Senators, and voters to reach before we can bring an end to this war and to all armed conflict. God’s blessings to every one of you who offered a prayer for peace, whether you were able to join us in person this past Tuesday or not.
