Come together in prayer and connection with others grieving, raging, feeling despair and fear.
This is a space to resist the impulse to separate and divide, reach towards one another in grief, and pray for deep and lasting healing for all those impacted by the violence and war in the Middle East. You are invited to bring a brief prayer to share.
In moments when words aren’t enough, prayer can be a powerful means for healing and feeling supported. Leaning on ancestral practices during times of rupture can help bolster us through difficult times.

How The Program Works
At the start of each session, community guidelines will be shared to ground the space.
Co-facilitators will begin with an offering of prayers for healing and grief, then open the circle up for participants to share their prayers, poems or songs.
There will also be time to connect with one another over light refreshments.
