Visit the JustFaith website.----------------------------------------------------------- Hello, friends. On Wednesday, August 6th, the local chapter of Pax Christi USA and JustFaith groups in the diocese will collaborate on a day of remembrance and prayers for peace. The event will begin with daily mass at the Holy Spirit Chapel, St. Michael's Cathedral in Springfield, we will have prayer and adoration in the chapel during the afternoon, films and information about Pax Christi and JustFaith in the Marshall Center, and in the evening a potluck supper and interfaith service. All are welcome to come at any time and stay as long as you like. This will be a wonderful opportunity for those JustFaith graduates interested in peacebuilding and nonviolence to meet members of Pax Christi and other peace communities in western Massachusetts. .... If anyone is interested in helping with the planning stages or the day itself, please let me know. Peace,Marilyn ...
