Come early to Maundy Thursday worship to vigil in recognition of the 5th anniversary of the beginning of the war in Iraq. We'll meet on the front lawn and patio at 6:30pm and use the prayer recommended by the United Church of Christ*. The vigil will be conclude to allow people to attend the Maundy Thursday worship service. Please invite anyone who might be interested. The event is designed to include children. Bring a bell or other joyful noisemaker if you have one. * 100,000 Lights for Peace: From Lamentation to Action to Hope The UCC has also prepared morning and noon prayers which you might wish to use. These move from Lamentation (light a candle in morning) to Action (midday) to Hope (peel bells in the evening). While 100,000 Lights for Peace is scheduled nationally for Wednesday, we will be holding our candlelight vigil on Thursday prior to Maundy Thursday worship. http://www.ucc.org/100kforpeace/100k_lights.html From the UCC website "On March 19, 2008, the wor
